Scientific paper

A survey of 20 nearby stars to detect the nonlinear variations in their motion produced by planetary systems is presented. A new photoelectric detector expected to utilize virtually all of the astrometric information transmitted through the earth's atmosphere was tested which was capable of determining relative positions with an accuracy of 1 milliarcsec/hr. It was concluded that a new ground based telescope combined with the new detector can study stars as faint as the 17th magnitude with an annual accuracy of a few tenths of a milliarcsec
