Major breakthrough in solar-planetary theory: Barycentre research vindicated

As long time regulars at the Talkshop know, our ongoing research into the links between planetary motion and solar variation has occasionally borne fruit in unexpected ways. The ‘shorthand’ for the sum of all planetary vectors is the Sun’s motion with respect to the barycentre of the solar system. This is the path the Sun is forced to follow by the ongoing evolution of the motion of all the planets. We have found various tantalising near-correlations between aspects of this motion and solar activity levels suggestive of some kind of mechanistic linkage.

Last year, we featured a post concerning the work of Shepherd, Zharkov and Zharkova, who have been coming at the solar variation problem from another angle. They resolved the solar-hemispheric components of the solar polar fields into two separate curves, representing shallow and deep solar ‘dynamos’.

Combining the curves together produces a good representation of changing solar activity levels. Their prediction is, like ours from our planetary model, for a big solar slowdown extending through the middle decades of this century. The mainstream climate scientists tried to get her press release revoked…

Looking at the red curve in the top panel of the first figure, which becomes the blue curve in Fig 2 of the paper, I decided to compare it with the solar angular momentum around the solar system barycentre. The match is good.

This plot removes all doubt. The motion of the planets which drives the motion of the Sun around the system barycentre is intimately involved with the evolution of the Solar Dynamo.

I was in contact with Valentina Zharkova last year by email, and she was interested in our research. I’ll send her this latest result.

I can smell revolution in the air.
