Station Map for the Occultation by (61) Danae at Tuesday, 2010 October 19 (~ 20:02 UT)
V-Magnitude of target star TYC 2816-01470-1: 11.5 mag
Johnson B-V Colour Index: + 1.1
UCAC instrumental „pseudo-R“ fit-model magnitude: 11.0 mag (data from UCAC3)
The max duration is expected to be 6.9 sec with a max drop of 0.8 mag.
The event will take place at an altitude of 53 deg and at azimuth 98 deg. The sun will be at an altitude of -32 deg. (At predicted centre line for longitude E 10 deg)
There is a 1 sigma uncertainty interval of ± 0.42 path widths.
The probabilities to see a positive event:
Centre line: ~ 77 %
Path limits: ~ 49 %
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.
