Abstract

Most of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) detected by EGRET are known or suspected to be superluminal sources. We report here the results of the observations of the blazars 3C 345, BL Lac and 3C 371, which have been selected from the list of known and possible superluminal sources. For none of them we found a signal in high energy γ-rays. The 20 upper limits for the γ-ray fluxes for energies above 100 MeV (equivalent to 95% confidence) are presented.
