Abstract : | High synchrotron energy peaked blazar 1ES 1959+650 is studied with Swift and XMM-Newton satellite in total 125 observations during the period June-2018 to December-2020 when the source is in low flux state. We extensively studied its flux and spectral variability on intra-day and long term timescales. Also, the spectral energy distribution around the synchrotron peak in X-rays is well described by log parabola model. Spectral parameters like peak energy Ep, peak luminosity Lp and the curvature are derived from sprectral analysis and their various correlations are studied, which provides important clues on the acceleration processes in blazar jets. Implications of others results are also discussed. |
