Station Maps for the Occultation by (476) Hedwig at Thursday, 2010 October 14 (~ 23:35 UT)

WEST and EAST

Magnitude of target star 2UCAC 41354932: 11.6 mag

The max duration is expected to be 10.0 sec with a max drop of 2.3 mag.
The event will take place at an altitude of 27 deg and at azimuth 79 deg. The sun will be at an altitude of -49 deg. (At predicted centre line for longitude E 10 deg)

There is a 1 sigma uncertainty interval of  ± 0.48 path widths.
The probabilities to see a positive event:

Centre line: ~  70 %
Path limits: ~  48 %
1 sigma lines:  ~ 16 %
2 sigma lines: ~ 2 %

(Calculation according to Raymond Dusser, E.A.O.N. Circular #10)

PLEASE REMEMBER: Predictions are sometimes wrong. Please observe even with a small probability.
