Occultations of stars by asteroids in May 2024 The following list contains the circumstances of occultations of the Tycho-2 and UCAC4 catalog stars by the numbered asteroids for May 2024. Only those phenomena are selected that are observable in Russia and nearest countries and have a duration larger than 1 sec, a drop in magnitude larger than 0.2 m, and an altitude larger than 20 degrees. The left half of a page shows the three-line general information, namely: the date; the number (if any) and name or provisional designation of the asteroid, its apparent visual magnitude and approximate diameter in km, the drop in magnitude and maximum duration in seconds; the catalog number of the star, its visual magnitude and J2000.0 right ascension and declination. The right half of a page describes the line of occultation in terms of longitude and latitude values for a set of moments along with the values of azimuth and altitude of a phenomenon at that place. All angular values are expressed in degrees. The same data are provided also for some NEAs - near Earth asteroids. The orbital elements were used from the MPCORB catalog of Minor Planet Center (http://www.minorplanetcenter.net/iau/MPCORB.html) for April 18, 2024. Of course, the orbits of many asteroids are known with insufficient accuracy, so in reality the phenomena may happen in a wider region. h m s ° ° ° ° 2024 May 1 19 13.4 73.2 56.2 93 26 118 Peitho; 13.4; 40km; 1.4; 2.6s 19 14.2 74.8 49.4 97 25 U4 565-045818; 12.4; 93521.4199;+225813.854 19 15.0 78.8 42.1 103 21 2024 May 3 13 24.2 128.7 50.4 82 24 607 Jenny; 15.4; 68km; 6.3; 3.1s 13 24.4 133.5 48.6 87 21 U4 520-046077; 9.2; 80935.4855;+134914.892 2024 May 3 21 30.7 43.1 35.2 286 31 1036 Ganymed; 12.4; 38km; 1.5; 1.9s 21 31.4 41.6 43.3 289 28 U4 481-091416; 11.2;190237.7942;+ 60533.444 21 32.1 35.2 52.2 288 21 2024 May 8 14 34.7 127.4 35.3 332 28 748 Simeisa; 15.5; 104km; 4.7; 6.4s 14 35.0 122.9 37.4 329 24 U4 342-076225; 10.9;155445.8569;-214000.694 14 35.3 117.6 40.1 324 20 2024 May 9 18 06.6 49.2 35.1 337 44 25 Phocaea; 10.8; 61km; 0.9; 5.0s 18 06.9 47.2 37.5 336 41 U4 408-058596; 10.5;133811.1003;- 83530.319 18 07.2 45.0 40.1 334 38 2024 May 11 15 11.7 149.9 40.8 76 20 2193 Jackson; 15.7; 58km; 3.8; 9.5s 15 13.4 135.0 38.0 66 32 U4 466-047578; 12.0;122124.7739;+ 30939.566 15 15.1 124.2 35.1 58 41 2024 May 12 15 55.5 79.8 42.8 60 31 397 Vienna; 15.2; 49km; 2.7; 3.1s 15 55.8 85.5 43.0 65 27 U4 461-046202; 12.6; 92255.5935;+ 21032.695 15 56.1 92.2 43.2 70 23 2024 May 14 17 23.3 125.8 39.3 38 27 461 Saskia; 15.2; 44km; 3.0; 3.2s 17 25.3 106.3 43.9 17 29 U4 375-070614; 12.3;150307.7966;-150942.482 17 27.3 85.3 52.2 354 22 2024 May 14 21 42.2 76.6 35.4 6 31 683 Lanzia; 13.7; 83km; 3.7; 8.6s 21 43.0 72.2 40.1 1 26 U4 332-126438; 10.1;175952.7289;-234744.542 21 43.8 67.2 46.0 356 20 2024 May 17 15 34.7 128.6 35.8 285 41 1036 Ganymed; 12.0; 38km; 3.3; 2.0s 15 35.4 125.7 43.4 289 37 U4 516-097046; 8.7;191557.9905;+130629.247 15 36.1 119.3 51.3 288 30 2024 May 19 18 11.2 65.0 48.5 86 31 118 Peitho; 13.7; 40km; 2.1; 1.9s 18 11.5 67.9 45.2 90 29 U4 551-047462; 11.8; 95428.7345;+201053.078 18 11.8 71.2 41.8 94 26 2024 May 21 20 52.1 55.7 40.0 8 31 379 Huenna; 13.6; 85km; 1.1; 6.3s 20 53.1 46.1 42.8 358 29 U4 358-077118; 12.9;160514.1400;-182943.358 20 54.1 35.4 46.8 347 24 2024 May 23 18 14.7 126.6 40.7 348 32 487 Venetia; 13.0; 59km; 2.5; 19.3s 18 16.5 123.4 37.8 344 34 U4 365-173248; 10.6;192444.9837;-170020.517 18 18.3 120.4 35.1 340 36 2024 May 25 20 23.5 54.9 40.3 289 47 1036 Ganymed; 11.7; 38km; 0.4; 2.1s 20 24.0 52.3 45.5 291 43 U4 539-094482; 12.7;192217.3959;+174636.819 20 24.5 48.2 50.7 291 39 2024 May 26 22 34.9 35.8 40.1 302 25 688 Melanie; 15.3; 42km; 3.4; 4.9s 22 35.9 40.7 43.0 307 26 U4 424-126982; 11.9;205029.3586;- 51731.785 22 36.9 45.1 46.2 312 27 2024 May 31 18 10.2 94.9 40.0 13 39 585 Bilkis; 13.7; 50km; 1.3; 4.8s 18 11.2 87.5 41.7 4 39 U4 402-063751; 12.8;162826.3703;- 93706.049 18 12.2 79.8 43.6 354 37
