Abstract:
   Video recordings of lunar occultations have a resolution that is usually 
   smaller than 0.02" in the sky plane. Video recordings of asteroidal 
   occultations typically have resolutions between 0.1 and 10 mas. 
   
   These recordings can show the presence of stellar duplicity, and 
   potentially detect stellar diameter effects (as well as Fresnel diffraction).
   The absence of any indication of stellar duplicity or stellar diameter 
   effects places limits on the separation and/or brightness of any possible 
   companion to that star, or of the diameter of that star.

Description:
   The catalogue contains light curves of stellar occultations by the moon, 
   and by asteroids. The light curves have generally been obtained using 
   telescopes with apertures less than 40cm, using video or similar 
   technologies.
