Abstract:
In this paper we describe the observations of the mutual phenomena of
the Galilean Satellites of Jupiter performed at the Royal Observatory
of Belgium, as part of the PHEMU97 and PHEMU03 campaigns. The paper
describes the observational technique, the data reduction and
summarises the results obtained.
Description:
Each file gives the data of the lightcurve of a mutual phenomenon
of Galilean Satellites of Jupiter, Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto,
as observed at the Royal Observatory of Belgium.

Note on *.dat: File names consist of three or four characters,
each representing a number in the range 00-35, following the
sequence 0-9a-z:
- First character = year - 1990
- Second character = month
- Third character = day of month
- Fourth character = sequence number in case more than one
phenomenon was observed during the same night
Phenomena occurring after midnight take the date of the previous day.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note on Seq:
Seq is linear in time, starts at 1 at shutter opening, and increments by 1
at each read-out of the CCD. Missing numbers mean gaps in the light curve.
Note on Epoch:
The error on Epoch equals the difference in Epoch between two successive
tabulations divided by the difference in Seq between two successive
tabulations.
Note on MagD:
The magnitude difference is usually "reference object minus programme
satellite". In case of d4b there are two phenomena in one light curve,
and for the first part of the light curve the order reverses.
