Abstract
THE PARALLAX OF THE ANDROMEDA NEBULA.—No. 4, vol. viii., of the Astronomiska lakttagelser och Undersükningar a Stockholms Observatorium is devoted to the results of an investigation of the parallax of the Andromeda nebula. The observations on which the results are based were made in two groups, the first set of fifteen photographs being, taken during the period 1902–4, the second, including forty-seven photographs, covering the season 1904–5. Dr. Karl Bohlin, by whom the investigation has been carried out, describes fully the methods employed, and finds for the parallax of the nebula the definitive value + 0″-171.
