   PR # 11003
    We propose to detect x-ray activity of protostar candidate IRAS 05338
    -0624, which might be buried under dense molecular cloud L1641 and is
    associated with bipolar out flow. Because of large column density, it
    has been difficult to observe this kind of protostar with EINSTEIN or
    ROSAT observatory, but ASCA can do observe it and might answer when
    X-ray activity starts in such early stage of protostar. Since X-ray
    activities deeply related to stellar rotation and magnetic field,this
    observation will give much information on a role of magnetic field in
    a star formation mechanism.
