Abstract

Photoelectric occultation traces of 5 stars are discussed which have been obtained with the 60 cm refractor of the Hamburg-Observatory during 1969/70. All traces show remarkable deviations from the usual Fresnel point-source pattern. Most details of these traces can be interpreted assuming the stars to be unresolved doubles. A short description of the equipment and the observational procedure is given.
