Tárgy: (329) Svea okkultacio 2008 februar 2-an, szombaton koraete
Szombaton este a 78 km-es Svea kisbolygó elfed egy 10 magnitúdó csillagot. A
fedés központi sávja a Nagykanizsa-Siófok-Vác vonalon halad keresztül, de
ettol 50-100 km-es távolságra is érdemes próbálkoznia megfigyeléssel.

Dear observers,
you'll find attached the station map for the occultation by (329) Svea at
Saturday, 2008 February 02 (~ 21:07 UT).
V-Magnitude of target star TYC 0084-01078-1: 10.0 mag
Johnson B-V Colour Index: + 0.5
The UCAC2 gives a "pseudo-R magnitude" of 9.9 mag.
The max duration is expected to be 9.6 sec with a max drop of 4.1 mag.
The event will take place at an altitude of 33 deg and at azimuth 227 deg.
The sun will be at an altitude of -52 deg. (At predicted centre line for
longitude E 20 deg).
There is a 1 sigma uncertainty interval of 0.46 path widths.
The probabilities to see a positive event:
Centre line: ~ 72 %
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.
