--------------------------------------------- PLANET ANOMALY ALERT 2004 #12 (issued 17-Jul, 21:35 UT) --------------------------------------------- Caustic exit in OGLE 2004-BLG-379 Dear Colleagues, Recent data collected by PLANET with the Danish 1.54m telescope at ESO LaSilla (Chile), the Canopus 1.0m telescope at Hobart (Australia), the Perth Observatory 0.6m telescope at Perth (Australia) and the SAAO 1.0m telescope at Sutherland (South Africa) indicates that a caustic exit has recently occured for event OGLE 2004-BLG-379. The peak magnification occurred at HJD = 2453204.05 +/- 0.05, from whence it has fallen in brightness by ~ 3-4 magnitudes to a trailing limb caustic crossing at HJD = 2453204.25 +/- 0.05. Event: OGLE 2004-BLG-379 RA (J2000): 18:05:04.68 Dec (J2000): -30:35:51.9 The baseline I magnitude reported by the OGLE team is 19.302.
