The 13 pages that link to Inverse Compton scattering, each with the reason it gives.

• Synchrotron radiationRelated: The same energetic electrons that emit synchrotron radiation can boost photons to higher energies.

• Compton scatteringCompared with: The electron gives energy to the photon, reversing the usual energy transfer.

• Sunyaev–Zel'dovich effectNarrower topic: It is the underlying process that boosts cosmic microwave background photons in the thermal effect.

• BlazarRelated: It can boost photons to the high energies observed from blazar jets.

• Free-electron laserCompared with: It can produce tunable high-energy photons by a different mechanism from undulator-based FEL amplification.

• Pulsar wind nebulaRelated: It produces high-energy emission when nebular electrons boost ambient photons.

• Cyclotron radiationCompared with: It can dominate high-energy emission where cyclotron photons are upscattered.
