ASCA weekly

[Fumiaki NAGASE <nagase@astro.isas.ac.jp>]

Dear ASCA users,

I am sending an ASCA observation schedule for February 10 - 20.

We found two mistakes in the accepted target lists which were replaced
as follow after authorization by the NASA and ESA review committees;
	(1) A1682 (PI: J. Hughes) was replace to A 2259 (RXJ1720.1+2740),
	(2) V603 Aql (PI: M. Watson) was replaced to V436 Cen,
since those targets have been observed already during AO4. The replacing
targets were selected from the next candidates in the lists of their proposals.

Taking these into account and accommodating with the userŐs requests,
Paul is now working in revising the long-term timeline. According to
this minor change, observation periods of several targets are shifted.
Paul will load the updated long-term timeline on the Web on Monday or
Tuesday next week, then those who concern the observation time of their 
targets should check the updated timeline.
