We study gamma-ray observations of NGC 4151 by GRO/OSSE contemporaneous with X-ray observations by ROSAT and Ginga in 1991 June and with ASCA in 1993 May. The spectra are well modeled by thermal Comptonization and a dual neutral absorber.…

We present a detailed analysis of a long, 100 ksec, observation of NGC 4151 by ASCA, contemporaneous with an observation by the CGRO/OSSE. We fit the data with physical models including an Fe K line and Compton reflection both…

The 0.5-150 keV broad-band spectra of a sample of nine bright type 1 Seyfert galaxies are analyzed here. These sources have been discovered/detected by INTEGRAL and subsequently observed with XMM--Newton for the first time with high…

We present a detailed analysis of the complex absorption apparent in the 2-6 keV X-ray spectrum of the bright nearby Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151. We first utilize the large bandpass and medium spectral resolution afforded by BeppoSAX data to…

We present first INTEGRAL and XMM-Newton observations of a Seyfert galaxy, the type 2 AGN NGC 4388. Several INTEGRAL observations performed in 2003 allow us to study the spectrum in the 20 - 300 keV range. In addition two XMM-Newton…

We present an analysis of all SAX observations of NGC 4151. This source was observed 5 times from 1996 to 2001 with durations ranging from a day to four days. The intrinsic continuum, is absorbed at low energies by a complex system: a cold…
