  Title: X-RAY LUMINOUS IRAS GALAXIES WITHOUT CLEARLY ESTABLISHED NUCLEAR ACTIVITY       


Abstract:
 The ROSAT All Sky Survey revealed a number of IRAS galaxies with high X-ray
 luminosities. Generally they have very steep soft X-ray spectra and are classified
 optically, varyingly, as active or non-active galaxies. It is proposed to study two
 of these galaxies with ASCA in order to determine the relative importance of
 Starburst and AGN processes in producing the high emission levels. An AGN component
 may show up at harder X-rays, while the contribution of thermal emission associated with Star
