\section{Eclipse Statistics}
It The authors note it is straightforward to show the probability of an eclipse at any depth is $P_e = r_s + r_g$
but where $r_s$ and $r_g$ are the
authors radii of the greater and smaller stars respectively, but in this case they wish to study the probability of an eclipse of \textbf{any specified} magnitude
depth. depth, which calls for a different approach.
\paragraph{}
In order to calculate this probability, the function $i(\Delta m)$ must be derived. Although the maximum primary eclipse depth $\Delta m$ is a well defined function of the inclination angle i, iteration is needed to find this inverse function $i(\Delta m)$
