Scientific paper

The date of the traditional Chinese New Year always occurs on a New
Moon. This is a consequence of the calendar being lunisolar. Clearly,
solar eclipses are possible on these dates. Data presented in this paper
show the frequency of the coincidence of solar eclipses and Chinese New
Year. An analysis of the types of eclipses is presented.
