Abstract

K magnitudes are given for seven Uranus-occulted stars, together with V and I magnitudes for 20 stars that will be occulted by the Uranian rings in 1986-1990 and 15 that will be occulted by the rings of Saturn in the course of 1986-1991. Occultation stars are noted to be up to 1 mag brighter in the K bandpass than could be predicted on the basis of V-I colors alone; this is explainable in terms of typical degrees of interstellar reddening.
