During the last quarter of 1994 I completed the paper on "Small angular 
scale binaries resolved with the Mark III", which is now released for 
publication in the Astronomical Journal by NRL, and will be submitted 
within the next two weeks. Part of the scientific discussion was 
improved after discussions with Deane Peterson from Stony Brook college 
during his stay with the OI group. 

From October 17 to 27, I was in Flagstaff to attend the dedication 
ceremonies of the NPOI. I also gave a 30 min review on scientific 
results obtained with the Mark III interferometer at the 2-day seminar 
on interferometry held at Lowell Observatory. The rest of this trip was 
spent helping with observations using the NPOI. 

Work on CHAMELEON did not make significant progress due to lack of data 
from NPOI. I decided to work on a set of routines which would compile 
observing lists selected from various astronomical catalogs. The 
programs try to estimate component separations and magnitude differences 
for binaries so that the more promising cases can be selected for 
observation. The software, STARBASE, a preliminary version of which has 
been finished, will also organize results and data on the binaries in 
form of a database.

I have started to help out with observations of binaries with the Naval 
Observatory's 26-inch telescope on an occasional basis. This is to gain 
some observing experience with "normal" telescopes and because of the 
close relation of the speckle interferometry programme run at this 
telescope to my own research.

I took four days of vacation at the end of the quarter.
