Subject: modified ASCA timeline


The transient source GRO J0422+will be observed by ASCA as a TOO. This
transient was discovered with GRO in 1992 August and a new outburst
was reported (see IAUC 5842). From the similarity of spectra and time
variability, this source is considered to be a group of black hole
candidates, Cyg X-1 and hard X-ray transients (see e.g., A&A 273,L11). 

To allocate GRO J0422+32 into observation, we will modify the timeline 
of the week for August 23-31 as shown in the following. The North-East 
pointing of the supernova remnant SN1006 is slipped to the week of 
September 6-12 and NGC 3147 which is allocated in the week currently 
will be moved to the span in October. We will allocate about 30 ksec for 
the observation of GRO J0422+32 and  will spend the rest time (about 
10 ksec) for the test and calibration of the ACS (attitude control system) 
which has been requested for long time by Inoue and Kii. Other targets of 
the week are kept as they are in the previous timeline.
