摘要: The authors have analysed the database of cosmic gamma rays above 100 MeV from SAS-2 satellite to search for -ray fluxes extragalactic active galactic nuclei (AGN). correlation function method devised by COS-B group sources has been used. They thus identified 15 AGN, including 11 quasars, 3 BL Lac objects and 1 radiogalaxy. further investigated relationship between their in different energy regions (>100 35-100 MeV) red shifts, they also derived spectral indices. results give support claim that detected are genuine objects.
