Relative change of the total flux △F/F (top row) and absolute change of the degree of polarization △P (bottom row) during central transits of the moon in front of the planet at different phase angles αp visualized using color maps and contour lines. The upper abscissa shows the time in days since the planet was at α = 0°. On the left ordinate, the relevant angle αp + φms is shown. The angle was transformed to a time in hours on the right ordinate, where a time of 0 corresponds to the time when the planet, moon, and observer are perfectly aligned. A single transit of the moon corresponds to a passage through the color maps perpendicular to the abscissa. For phase angles above 180°, F(360° − αp, 360° − φms) = Fp, φms).
