Accurate optical positions for Markarian galaxies 1303-1399

Markarian (1967, 1969) called attention to a class of extragalactic objects numbering 1399 as of 1979 which are characterized by the presence of and unusually strong ultraviolet continuum when compared with typical galaxies. The present investigation is concerned with the accurate positions of 97 additional Markarian objects, Mark 1303-1399. The positions of the Markarian objects are listed in a table. An estimate of errors in the measurements was made by comparing the measured positions of SAO stars with their catalog positions. Each SAO was measured using the same techniques described for the Markarian objects.
