Phys. Rev. D 67, 022002 (2003) [6 pages]Allais gravity and pendulum effects during solar eclipses explainedReceived 30 July 2002; published 27 January 2003 Gravitational and other anomalies seen repeatedly in connection with solar eclipses have led to speculation about a possible gravitational shielding effect as the cause. Here we show that an unusual phenomenon that occurs only during solar eclipses, rapid air mass movement for the bulk of the atmosphere above normal cloud levels, appears to be a sufficient explanation for both the magnitude and behavior of the anomaly previously reported in these pages. © 2003 The American Physical Society URL:
