In this paper we study a class of multi-term time fractional integral diffusion equations. Results on existence, uniqueness and regularity of a strong solution are provided through the Rothe method. Several examples are given to illustrate the applicability of main results.

Keywords: Fractional integral diffusion equation, m-accretive operator, Rothe method, strong solution, C₀-semigroup.
