Scientific paper

A large number of active galactic nuclei and quasars detected by the HEAO A1 x-ray survey and recently identified using results from the HEAO A3 experiments are described and preliminary results are presented. The sample shows some incompleteness and is not completely identified, so these effects are taken out in the analysis by correcting the effective coverage of the survey. Preliminary analysis indicates that significant evolution can be detected in this data and that the evolution rate appears stronger than that inferred from a sample selected at lower energies.
