Scientific paper

From a sample of well-known binary orbits, 3141 observations of visual double stars obtained by 12 observers are analyzed for systematic and acidental errors. The single plots of each observer do not differ significantly from the general plot obtained via averaging of all 3141 observations. The contribution of the 'resolving power effect' to orbit determination is quantitatively investigated.
