Description:
    In the course of The Uppsala-ESO Survey of Asteroids and Comets
    astrometric positions of the faint outer Jovian satellites J VI-XIII
    were obtained from photographic plates and films taken at the European
    Southern Observatory, La Silla, Chile and at the Anglo-Australian
    Observatory, Siding Spring, Australia
