Discussion:

Eugenia is plotted according to the DAMIT model. The central line of the event appears to be north of the predicted path, by something less than 100km. The circle has been plotted on the longest observed chord, whose length is consistent with the expected diameter.

The figures below show the Tangra light curve of the occultation.
