Abstract:
We have observed the four Galilean satellites of Jupiter during their
mutual occultations and eclipses from February to April 2003 using a
CCD camera attached to the 32.5cm refractor of the observatory of
Lille. We have recorded 13 lightcurves of these events. We have
performed a first astrometric reduction based on the method developed
in Noyelles et al. (2003A&A...401.1159N 2003A&A...401.1159N). This analysis of the results
and comparison with theory show that the observations are good; the
residuals are about 0.03arcsec.
