The August 26, 1978, occultation of Aldebaran was observed
photometrically at one-millisecond resolution, and a diameter of 0.023
arcsec is obtained. This value leads to a radius of 52 solar radii,
which results in the respective determinations for the mass and
effective temperature of 1.9 solar masses and 3650K.
