Abstract
OBSERVATIONS OF EROS.—In one of the papers included in the Decennial Publications of the University of Chicago Prof. E. E. Barnard publishes the results of the micro-metrical observations of Eros made at the Yerkes Observatory with the 40-inch refractor during the opposition of 1900-1901. After describing the methods of observation and discussing the errors, he gives, in tabular form, the details of each of the 7500 individual “settings” made during the series of observations. He also gives the results of a set of observations which were made during 1898 and 1900, but have not previously been published.
