ASCA Weekly

[ASCANEWS CUSTODIAN <MUKAI@lheavx.gsfc.nasa.gov>]

Dear ASCA users,

I am sending an ASCA observation schedule for March 16 -27.
The observation of G359.1-0.2 is split into two exposures to
allocate the calibration observations of Her X-1 in its High-on,
non-eclipse phase. The Her X-1 observations aim to calibrate
low energy point spread functions at several offset positions.
