The instant of greatest eclipse takes place on 2083 Aug 13 at 12:34:41 TD (12:32:50 UT1). This is 6.4 days after the Moon reaches apogee. During the eclipse, the Sun is in the constellation Leo. The synodic month in which the eclipse takes place has a Brown Lunation Number of 1987.
The eclipse belongs to Saros 156 and is number 5 of 69 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.
This is a very deep partial eclipse. It has an eclipse magnitude of 0.6146, while Gamma has a value of -1.2064.
The partial solar eclipse of 2083 Aug 13 is preceded two weeks earlier by a total lunar eclipse on 2083 Jul 29.
Another solar eclipse occurs one synodic month before the 2083 Aug 13 eclipse. It is the partial solar eclipse of 2083 Jul 15.
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 111.1 seconds for this eclipse.
