****************************************************** PR # 11013 We propose to observe, for 20 ksec each, 5 of the X-ray brightest W- UMa type contact binary systems. The proposed targets are,in priority order,44i Boo, VW Cep, W UMa, XY Leo, and SW Lac. These systems are very active late-type binary star systems, exhibiting both high and low temperature emission components. ******************************************************
