Abstract
We present a homogeneous sample of 65 active galactic nuclei, which are part of the Swift/BAT AGN catalogue. For this sample we analyzed Xray spectra from XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL satellites simultaneously, thus allowing us to extend the spectral range 0,5-300 keV. The spectralparameters, such as power-law indexes, relativity reflection R, equivalent width of Fe K line, neutral absorption and intrinsic luminosity aredetermined for this sample. We built and examine such dependences as “power-law index – relativity reflection”; “equivalent width of Fe Kα line –intrinsic luminosity” (Baldwin effect) in middle 2-10 keV and hard 20-100 keV energy ranges; “power-law index – cut-off energy” and “absorptionvalue-equivalent width of Fe Kα line”. Dependence of “power-law index – relativity reflection” for Seyfert 1/2 galaxies were investigated separately.We found that this dependence is not clearly approximated by linear model. Also, we found that the relativity reflection parameter at low power-lawindexes for Seyfert 2 galaxies systematically higher than in Seyfert 1. This can be explained by increasing contribution of reflected radiation fromthe gas-dust torus.
