Scientific paper

We review recent hard X-ray and gamma-ray observations of Cen A, NGC 4151, 3C273, and 3C279. The new data showed remarkable variability of these objects in the high-energy gamma-ray regime. Recent observations by GRANAT show an unexpected sharp break at about 50 keV in the 1990 spectrum of NGC 4151. Recent observations by the Compton Observatory show intense GeV emission from 3C279 in June 1991. We present composite energy spectra of these objects from the radio to gamma-ray energies.
