Light deflection

Abstract

A telescope was designed and fabricated which constitutes the primary piece of instrumentation in an experiment to obtain an improved measurement of the gravitational deflection of light. A Mark 2 solar oblateness detector was also designed and built. A preliminary study was made of the problems associated with the parallax measurement of spectroscopic binaries, and it indicates that for these objects distances up to 10 to the 5th power pc night be measured.
