****************************************************** PR # 125 Einstein observatory has detected 108 or more sources in the M31 field(including one foreground source) with luminosities ranging between10^36 to 10^39 erg/sec. About a half of the sources are clustered inthe central 7 arc min region, and are difficult to be spaciallyresolved with ASCA. Purpose of ASCA observations is first to studythe properties of each point source, second to search for possiblediffuse emission by looking for line emissions. It is expected to get100 photons/10ksec from a single side of SIS for a source withluminosity 10^37 erg/sec. ******************************************************
