Scientific paper

Absolute coordinate values are determined for 86 objects on the basis of data obtained with Mark II photoelectric astrolabe No. 2 at Beijing Astronomical Observatory during the period 1979-1984. The equal-altitude method employed in the computations is described in detail, and the results are presented in tables. The mean accuracy of the position corrections is given as + or - 1.6 msec in right ascension and + or - 0.019 arcsec in declination.
