Scientific paper

The possibility of observing general-relativistic apsidal motions outside the solar system in well-detached eclipsing binaries is reviewed, taking into account the expected influence of the various parameters involved. A procedure to select candidate systems among eccentric eclipsing binaries is presented together with a list of suggested targets. A simplified method to obtain the apsidal motion rates from the observation of times of minimum light is proposed.
