Dear ASCA users, I am sending an ASCA short-term schedule for August 9-20. Gamma Cas is a supplemental for the previously incompleted observation. A priority-C target, A3562, in the Sheply supercluster (PI: H. Hanami), which was once in the long-term timeline in August, was dropped out into an unscheduled targetsÕ pool. Instead, HanamiÕs proposal for the target is merged with the TsuruÕs proposal of the Sheply supercluster survey which is now in schedule for observation on July 27-29. I will be absent for about two week to attend COSPAR meeting in Birmingham and next short-term schedule for August 20-31will be issued around July 25. Those, who send me questions or requests on ASCA schedule during my absence, should make ÒCCÓ to P. Hilton (paul@astro.isas. ac.jp) and M. Ishida (ishida@astro.isas.ac.jp). F.
