Scientific paper

I show my image acquisition and measurement procedures with a simple CCD camera. The attainable accuracy with a focal length of 1 meter is discussed and a list of about 100 measures of stars is presented. It was found that precise measures are possible for separations larger than 5 or 6 arc seconds. Some useful projects can be tackled with this setup, eg measuring "Neglected Double Stars" or demonstrating proper motion in nearby stars in comparison with older measures.
