Dear ASCA users, Here, I am sending the last slot of short term schedule for ASCA AO4 observations, thus the cycle-4 observations of the ASCA guest observerŐs program is closed on the Christmas Eve, 1996. In this schedule we include one priority-C target and five supplemental observations previously uncompleted. One target (A 2255, PI; Ikebe, 100ks) and two supplemental (NGC4941, PI; Terashima, 18.8 ks, and Cham Cloud, PI; Yamauchi, 5.3 ks) are hold over to cycle-5 observation period. Four Japanese Priority-C targets (N135; Hayashi, IRAS00421-705; Ogasaka, RXJ1756.5; Tawara, and MS1006+1202; Yamashita), which were one loaded on the long-term timeline, are cancelled unscheduled. Observations of AO5 accepted targets will start from December 24, 1996. F.
