POSITIONS OF NEPTUNIAN SATELLITES

Photographic positions of the Neptunian satellites Triton (53 position s) and Nereid (8 positions) obtained at the Cassegrain focus of a 1.6 m reflector are given for the oppositions of 1982 through 1988. All po sitions were reduced using astrometric methods and compared with those calculated analytically from Harris (1984) for Triton and from a nume rical integration for Nereid. The observed minus calculated residuals referred to Neptune have standard deviations of the order of 0.''05 fo r Triton and 0.''25 for Nereid.
