Description:
We present improved Hipparcos astrometry for 257 Hipparcos stars,
resolved into 342 components. For 64 of the stars no astrometry
was obtained in the Hipparcos Catalogue, while for the remaining stars
additional components have been added by this solution or the
positions have been revised considerably. We have used the published
Hipparcos transit data for the new solutions, together with results
from the second reduction of the Tycho data for defining better
initial values.
