Abstract

WE welcome another addition to our knowledge of the positions and distances of double stars. Prof. Asaph Hall has published a volume containing 1614 observations of such stars made by him chiefly with the 26-inch refractor at the Naval Observatory at Washington. The objects of the observations are two. Firstly, the detection of constant errors of observations by the measurements of double-stars from a selected list, and comparing such measures with those of other observers made as nearly as possible simultaneously; and, secondly, the measurements of double-stars generally.
