This list contains a selection of results of measurements made since September, 1963. Until the end of 1962, the stability of equipment performance was unsatisfactory and, when the author assumed responsibility for the operation of the laboratory in 1963, several dates that had been published (Focken, 1960, 1962, and private commun.) were withdrawn. The performance and operation of the equipment were re-assessed and improved during 1963 and routine dating was begun towards the end of the year.
