TL;DR: In this article, the authors established a relation between two gravitational anomalies: one that has attracted part of the scientific community, the Allais effect that occurs during solar eclipse; the other, noticed but forgotten by the whole scientific community.
Abstract: The purpose of this article is to establish a relation between two gravitational anomalies: one that has attracted part of the scientific community, the Allais effect that occurs during solar eclipse; the other, noticed but forgotten by the whole scientific community, the General Relativity’s residual arc of the curvature of rays of light in the solar gravitational field during the same eclipse. There is a systematically observed deflection about 10 percent larger than the theoretical value of General Relativity, which coincides with the «eclipse effect» found by Maurice Allais, thrown aside because it upsets the established truths. These corresponding anomalies were never explained by any theories and turn out to be new gravitational physics.

TL;DR: In this paper, simultaneous observations of the reactions of two very light torsion balances and a paraconical pendulum were performed during a solar eclipse that was not visible at those locations but only in the Indian Ocean.
Abstract: On January 26th, 2009, simultaneous observations of the reactions of two very light torsion balances (Kiev, Ukraine) and a paraconical pendulum (Suceava, Romania, 440 km away) were performed during a solar eclipse that was not visible at those locations but only in the Indian Ocean. Significant correlation between the behavior of the torsion balances and the pendulum was observed. The conclusion is that a solar eclipse influences the reactions of torsion balances and pendulums, even in areas of the Earth where it is not optically visible.

TL;DR: In this paper, the ionospheric response to the total solar eclipse of 1997 March 9 was considered on the database of some ionosondes (longitudinal chain) and Irkustsk incoherent scatter radar.

TL;DR: The case of a patient suffering from acute visual loss soon after watching a solar eclipse is described, with optical coherence tomography being the main diagnostic tool used.
Abstract: CASE REPORT We describe the case of a patient suffering from acute visual loss soon after watching a solar eclipse. Optical coherence tomography was the main diagnostic tool used. DISCUSSION Solar retinopathy is now an unusual cause of visual loss, although there are still some cases diagnosed, especially after viewing solar eclipses. Optical coherence tomography is suitable for detecting permanent retinal injuries related to solar exposure, with the outer retinal layers being typically affected.
