Lunar Occultations of Neglected Double Stars Brighter than 5 mag from the WDS

JOA 2025, Vol. 15, No. 2, Page 3

Author(s): Oliver Klös

Abstract: A list of neglected double stars is presented on the webpage of the Washington Double Star Catalog. New measurements for the objects on this list are very welcome. This article presents double stars from this list whose primary components are brighter than 5 mag and which can be measured by observing total and grazing lunar occultations. Favourable observation possibilities for occultations in the months of May to December 2025 are presented in detail.
