Comments: Shooting: 13300 frames, longpass 630 nm filter. Clearly visible ε-Ring. When the Simulator rings are superimposed, the pericenter ε-Ring coincides with the large Ring in the image. But the most interesting thing is that on the inside of the ε-Ring in the image, thin a ring is visible, which can be δ+η Rings (γ, λ Rings cannot be detected with this resolution). The area of the Simulator with the rings δ, γ, η quite clearly coincides with the clearly visible thin ring on the resulting image, even taking into account minor errors when superimposed the Simulator to the image. Thus, as can be seen from the images, animation and Simulator, the thin ring in the image lies between the areas that correspond to the areas of the α, β Rings and ε-Ring. This is the region of the δ+η Rings. Another explanation for the thin ring in the image is that it is part of ε-Ring.
