Introduction
The Hybrid Solar Eclipse of 1843 Jun 27 is visible from the geographic regions shown on the map to the right. Click on the map to enlarge it. For an explanation of the features appearing in the map, see Key to Solar Eclipse Maps.
The instant of greatest eclipse takes place on 1843 Jun 27 at 19:17:03 TD (19:16:57 UT1). This is 6.7 days after the Moon reaches apogee. During the eclipse, the Sun is in the constellation Gemini. The synodic month in which the eclipse takes place has a Brown Lunation Number of -983.
The eclipse belongs to Saros 134 and is number 34 of 71 eclipses in the series. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moons descending node. The Moon moves northward with respect to the node with each succeeding eclipse in the series and gamma increases.
The solar eclipse of 1843 Jun 27 is one of the rare hybrid solar eclipses. In this particular case the eclipse path starts out as annular. Further down the track it changes to total and then back to annular before the path ends. It is a very short hybrid eclipse with a duration at greatest eclipse of 00m07s. The eclipse magnitude is 1.0011, while Gamma has a value of -0.3037.
The hybrid solar eclipse of 1843 Jun 27 is preceded two weeks earlier by a penumbral lunar eclipse on 1843 Jun 12, and it is followed two weeks later by a penumbral lunar eclipse on 1843 Jul 11.
These eclipses all take place during a single eclipse season.
The eclipse predictions are given in both Terrestrial Dynamical Time (TD) and Universal Time (UT1). The parameter ΔT is used to convert between these two times (i.e., UT1 = TD - ΔT). ΔT has a value of 5.7 seconds for this eclipse.
