****************************************************** PR # 21531 Strong optical FeII emission seems to be connected with the X-ray properties of active galaxies. One model to explain the observed strength of the FeII lines requires a strong, hard X-ray component (irradiating an accretion disk). Relatively short ASCA observations allow to establish the presence of such a component and thus to assess the likelihood of the accretion disk model. One of the alternatives for an explanation of the FeII emission lines could be associated with a 3-6 keV temperature Raymond-Smith spectrum. It is proposed to perform the ASCA observations for two objects with particularly interesting properties (such as strong FeII lines, steep soft X-ray spectra, narrow-line Seyfert 1 spectra) for which Rosat data are available. ******************************************************
