Discovery of Stellar Duplicity of TYC 1950-02320-1 During Asteroidal Occultation by (141) Lumen
Abstract
An occultation of TYC 1950-02320-1 by the asteroid (141) Lumen on 2013 December 28 showed this star to be a double star. Both components of the double star were occulted as recorded by one observer, one component of the double star was occulted by three observers, and 9 observers recorded miss observations. The separation of the two components is 0.1529 ± 0.0008 arcseconds at a position angle of 105.8 ± 0.7 degrees. The magnitude of the primary component is estimated to be 11.25 (V). The magnitude of the secondary component is estimated to be 11.47 (V).
