Scientific paper

In five years of operation, data from INTEGRAL has been used to discover a large number of gamma-ray sources, a substantial fraction of which have turned out to be active galactic nuclei (AGN). Recently Bassani et al. (2006) have presented a sample of around 60 AGNs of which some still lack optical identification or information in the X-ray band. In this work we present X-ray data for 8 objects acquired with the XRT telescope on-board Swift satellite. The XRT positioning has allowed us to identify the optical counterparts and to classify their types through follow-up measurements. Analysis of these data has also provided information on their spectra below 10 keV.
