Scientific paper

A new moving slit star micrometer has been developed for the 18 cm Carlsberg Automatic Meridian Circle on La Palma. A zenith mean error of 0{inf./sup}15 for one transit and a limiting magnitude of 14{inf./supm}8 is obtained. It has a high efficiency and is well suited for improving the FK5 system and extending it to much fainter stars. A new collimator alignment micrometer and the necessary calibrations are also described.
