Abstract:
This paper is devoted to the analysis of air temperature and humidity changes during the two solar eclipses of 26 December 2019 and 21 June 2020 in Saudi Arabia based on data we collected from two different sites. We highlight the complexity of humidity’s response to a solar eclipse, which is quite different from temperature’s response. During the December event, the Sun rose already partially eclipsed, while for the June eclipse, it was only partial at Riyadh. This difference apparently affected the observed response on the recorded variables: temperature, relative humidity (RH), and vapor pr

Abstract:
There are partial or total solar eclipses every year on our planet. They are observed from relatively small areas. From 1950 to 2100, three total solar eclipses fell within the territory of Bulgaria. The two solar eclipses from the 20th century were observed on 15.02.1961 and 11.08.1999. The next total solar eclipse will happen on 3.09.2081. The partial solar eclipses in Bulgaria were on 3.10.2005, 29.03.2006, 1.09.2008, 4.01.2011, and 25.10.2022. The question of the influence of solar eclipses on the Earth’s atmosphere, water, and living organisms is an area of interest for many researchers.

It is shown that this ratio is no more than 23%, and that the method fails to predict after which specific lunar eclipse a solar eclipse will appear.

Abstract In this paper, we are looking at the British expeditions that observed the 1919 total solar eclipse in Sobral (Brazil) and Príncipe island as scientific practice embedded in their geographical, social, and world-political context. This fresh look makes steps towards a “global history” of this eclipse, and reports on contextual elements of the expeditions that have been hitherto “eclipsed” in the narratives that concentrated on the exchange of scientific arguments in a “world of ideas.” What it may mean to think of the globality of the 1919 eclipse is presented followed by an analysis

AbstractTotal solar eclipses will cross southern Africa on June 21, 2001, and on December 4, 2002. Most of Africa will see partial phases. The total phase of the 2001 eclipse will be visible from parts of Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Madagascar. The total phase of the 2002 eclipse will be visible from parts of Angola, Botswana, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Mozambique. Public education must be undertaken to tell the people how to look at the eclipse safely. We can take advantage of having the attention of the people and of news media to teach about not only eclipses but also the rest

Despite recent interpretations by Bricker and Bricker (2011) and Justeson (2017), the methods used by the Maya in constructing the Dresden Codex Eclipse Table continue to elude us. We assume that the Maya could predict solar eclipses in a similar way to lunar eclipses and that the information from the Espenak and Meeus (2009) eclipse catalog remedies the lack of observational data. Following Justeson (2017), who identified the eclipse cycle of 88 synodic months, equal to almost 2600 days, called tzolkinex, in this work, several families of tzolkinex were identified.

Abstract Eclipses of radio emission have been reported for ∼58 spider millisecond pulsars (MSPs), of which only around 19% have been extensively studied. Such studies at low frequencies are crucial for probing the properties of the eclipse medium. This study investigates eclipses in 10 MSPs in compact orbit using wide-bandwidth observations with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. We report the first evidence of eclipsing for PSR J2234+0944 and J2214+3000 in one epoch, while no evidence of eclipsing was observed in the subsequent two epochs, indicating temporal evolution of the eclipse cutoff

Solar eclipses provide a rapidly changing solar radiation environment. These changes can be studied using simple photodiode sensors, if the radiation reaching the sensors is unaffected by cloud. Transporting the sensors aloft using standard meteorological instrument packages modified to carry extra sensors, provides one promising but hitherto unexploited possibility for making solar eclipse radiation measurements. For the 20 March 2015 solar eclipse, a coordinated campaign of balloon-carried solar radiation measurements was undertaken from Reading (51.44°N, 0.94°W), Lerwick (60.15°N, 1.13°W) a

Abstract. Several publications have reported that total column ozone (TCO) may oscillate with an amplitude of up to 10 DU (Dobson units) during a solar eclipse, whereas other researchers have not seen evidence that an eclipse leads to variations in TCO beyond the typical natural variability. Here, we try to resolve these contradictions by measuring short-term variations (of seconds to minutes) in TCO using “global” (Sun and sky) and direct-Sun observations in the ultraviolet (UV) range with filter radiometers (GUVis-3511 and Microtops II®). Measurements were performed during three solar eclips

ABSTRACT We present a study of the eclipses in the accreting white dwarf EX draconis (EX Dra) during TESS Cycles 14 and 15. During both of the two outbursts present in this data set, the eclipses undergo a hysteretic loop in eclipse-depth/out-of-eclipse-flux space. In each case, the direction in which the loops are executed strongly suggests an outburst that is triggered near the inner edge of the accretion disc and propagates outwards. This in turn suggests that the outbursts in EX Dra are ‘inside out’ outbursts; events predicted by previous hydrodynamic studies of dwarf nova accretion discs

Context. EE Cep is one of few eclipsing binary systems with a dark, dusty disc around an invisible object similar to ε Aur. The system is characterised by grey and asymmetric eclipses every 5.6 yr that have significant variations in their photometric depth, ranging from ∼0.m5 to ∼2.m0. Aims. The main aim of the observational campaign of the EE Cep eclipse in 2014 was to test the model of disc precession. We expected that this eclipse would be one of the deepest with a depth of ∼2.m0. Methods. We collected multicoloured observations from almost 30 instruments located in Europe and North America

Abstract:
Light curves by Woudt and Warner (WW) of recurrent nova IM Nor show eclipse-like dips that they saw as too wide for eclipses alone, and interpreted as mainly a reflection effect due to irradiation of the companion (mass donor) star with some amplitude increase due to eclipse of IM Nor’s disk. A mainly reflection interpretation cannot be made to work because reflection does not produce dips over a restricted phase range but a somewhat distorted sinusoid that extends over the entire orbital cycle. Here, the dip features are interpreted in two ways, with testing via quantitative light curve model

The history of total solar eclipses usually is to be found within the history of science. However, a true social history of total eclipses must include the experience of the general population that witnessed it. I am interested in the emotions induced by a total eclipse of the Sun in the recent past. I surmise that solar eclipses engender all eight of the psycho-evolutionary classifications of emotion enunciated by Robert Plutchik. There are eight primary emotions in Plutchik’s system. I suggest examples corresponding to each, relying on accounts of the total solar eclipse of 7 August 1869.

It is expected that the blocking of solar radiation during an eclipse causes a reduction of the ionospheric conductivity and therefore has an effect on the different current systems.
