dc.description.abstract	Blazars consisting of BL Lacertae objects (BL Lacs; featureless compsite optical/UV spectra) and flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs; promi nent emission lines in composite optical/UV spectra), are the active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with strong relativistic jets pointing towards the direction of the observer. Their double-humped spectral energy distribu tions (SEDs) extend from radio to very high energy γ−rays. TeV (Tera electron Volt) blazars, those observed at TeV energies, are mostly the high-frequency peaked blazars (HBLs), that is, the first hump of their SED peaks at UV to X-ray energy bands. In this thesis, we performed the X-ray (0.3-10 keV), UV, and optical variability study of TeV HBL PG 1553+113 on intraday/short/long timescales and spectral analysis to understand better their fine structures and the underlying emission processes at these energy bands.	en_US
