Abstract

A sample of 25 strong extragalactic millimeter sources have been observed at about 1 keV with the Imaging Proportional Counter on the Einstein X-Ray Observatory and at 90 GHz with the NRAO 11 m telescope. A strong correlation between the millimeter and X-ray flux densities is found. This result is consistent with a synchronous self-Compton model in which the X-ray emission arises from the Compton scattering of millimeter radio photons off the relativistic electrons which created them.
