ASCA weekly
Dear ASCA users,
I am sending a short-term ASCA observation schedule for the period
of March 18 - 31. The schedule for the period of March 18-25 released
in the previous week was rearranged to get better coordination for the
time constrained targets. This period is busy for five time critical
targets, Mkn 501, 4C38.41, Gamma Vel, GRO J1655-40, and Cyg X-1,
and current timeline is almost a unique solution to compromise all the
time constraints. Mkn 501 and 4C38.41 are not visible for March 28 to
early April due to the ASCA STT (star trackers) moon constraint.
Any more change of the schedule is extremely hard for this interval.
