Scientific paper

The discovery of continuum absorption and reflection in a composite spectrum from 12 Ginga observations of Seyfert-type AGN is reported. Most of these spectral features are shown to be well-modeled by reprocessing of hard X-ray power-law continuum in a slab (or perhaps a disk) of cold matter. There is also evidence for a substantial line-of-sight column of photoionized material.
