Scientific paper

In this talk we briefly review the inverse Compton (IC) scattering of nuclear photons in the lobes of radio galaxies and quasars. We concentrate on the possibility to test this model with the Chandra observatory and to constrain the electron energy distribution by measuring the X-ray fluxes produced by this effect. We also discuss the evidence for IC scattering of nuclear photons in the powerful radio galaxies.
