This is a list of transiting circumsecondary disks (including possible ring systems). A circumsecondary disk is a disk of gas and/or dust around a star, white dwarf or substellar object that is a secondary in a star system. In rare cases the system can be aligned in a way that makes it possible for the circumsecondary disk to transit in front of the primary. In some cases the observed dips can be so deep that researchers describe these dimming events as occultations.
The object J1407b was considered a circumsecondary disk in the past, but later turned out to be more likely a free-floating planetary-mass object with a disk. PDS 110 is a candidate with uncertain status, as later eclipses did not occur. VVV-WIT-07, ASASSN-V J192543.72+402619.0, ASASSN-21co, FY Scuti, OGLE-BLG182.1.162852, and ZTF J185259.31+124955.2 are candidates without much modelling of the disk.
