Abstract:

In this paper we describe the calculation of the class numbers of most real abelian number fields of conductor $\leqslant 200$. The technique is due to J. M. Masley and makes use of discriminant bounds of A. M. Odlyzko. In several cases we have to assume the generalized Riemann hypothesis.
