The first component is a background cycle modulation that I think is driven by
Solar Angular Momentum (AM) and has existed for 4 billion years.
Even if we assume that all the mass of the sun is at its surface on the equation (I'm too lazy to carry out the 3 - dimensional integration over variable density),
the solar angular momentum is 2 * 10 ^ 30 kg x 7 * 10 ^ 8 m * 1 * 10 ^ 3 m / s, or about 1.5 * 10 ^ 41 kg - m ^ 2 / s — about a hundred times less than Jupiter's.
Your figures only confirm the mystery of why
the solar angular momentum is so much less than its mass would suggest were the condensing rotating mass theory correct.
Not exact matches
Because the other planets in the
solar system all exist along a flat plane, their
angular momentum works to keep the whole disk spinning smoothly.
The largest clumps of matter in the universe had an initial
angular momentum — and these clumps broke up into ever smaller clumps, forming smaller clusters of galaxies, groups of galaxies, individual galaxies,
solar systems within galaxies and ultimately, individual stars and planets.
u «One of the detailed problems is then to explain how the Sun itself acquires nearly 99.9 % of the mass of the
solar system but only 2 % of its
angular momentum.»
«One of the detailed problems is then to explain how the Sun itself acquires nearly 99.9 % of the mass of the

BTW I've never understood why the the
angular momentum of the
solar system is possessed mainly by the orbiting planets while its mass is concentrated in the sun.
Re my: (
solar or lunar - driven precession itself can't (approximately) happen at those times when the sun or moon cross the equatorial plane)... refering specifically to the component of precession that is wobbling of the Earth's
angular momentum vector in an inertial reference frame; another component comes from shifting of the semimajor axis.
The Earth Luni -
solar geometry, gravitation, and conservation of
angular momentum effects on weather seem well - founded, if still not well - understood.
Can the magnetic fields carried by the plasma of
solar wind exert such a torque on the Earth that the Earth
angular momentum is changed significantly?
Start by isolating the
solar - terrestrial - climate weave from earth rotation & global atmospheric
angular momentum records.
I'm assuming predicting future
angular momentum is relatively easy for 200 years into the future, but that predicting
solar cycle modulation is more complicated, probably because the
solar cycle is caused by a different mechanism, but is very strongly influenced by
angular momentum.
Perhaps when the normal peak of the
solar cycle lines up with the highest
angular momentum from Jupiter and Saturn, then the
solar activity is very high.
Predicting
solar cycle modulation using
angular momentum is relatively easy, but like any prediction it needs to be tested.
I'm very interested in the next step of Mr. Smith's «
Angular Momentum» which would be how these planetary alignments affect Earth's orbit, tilt axis, magnetic energy and gravity juxtaposed with the
Angular Momentum & Past / Future
Solar Activity AM.
Fig. 1 shows the 2 planetary positions that create the majority of
angular momentum in our
solar system.
On the topic of the 2400 year
solar cycle, the paper suggests that the sun will enter a 370 year period of high activity between AD2242 and AD2610, like that of the Roman Warming Period, consistent with JPL
angular momentum data and your predictions of
solar activity for the next 1000 years.
Could you please explain to me how to identify when
Angular Momentum is at its highest and when the sun goes into Grand Minima using this
solar motion application?
You said describing
solar cycles with
angular momentum is very easy, if it isn't too much will you care to explain how it is done.
«The range of the Sun's orbital
angular momentum about the SSB varies from near zero to only 25 % of the Sun's differential
angular momentum driving the
solar dynamo (Landscheidt 2003).
The invariable plane, the plane that represents the
angular momentum of the
Solar System, is approximately the orbital plane of Jupiter.
Our planet as a whole conserves its
angular momentum except for the known effects of external torque associated with the lunar -
solar tide, which induces a gradual decelerating of the earth rotation velocity at a rate corresponding to the increase in the astronomic length of day (LOD) by about 1.4 millisecond per century (Munk and McDonald 1960).
Hi Steven I wouldn't discard the
solar, not as yet (see vukcevic page 6) than take a look at http://trs-new.jpl.nasa.gov/dspace/bitstream/2014/22423/1/97-0910.pdf page 9: The total CAM (core
angular momentum) results from the summation of the individual cylinders with a maximum at a 15 - year lead with respect to LOD...... (note the -65-year periodicity).
In addition it also became obvious that
Angular Momentum (AM) was responsible for the strength of the
solar cycle, the AM curve very closely matches the sunspot curve which now allows us easily to predict modulation strength for the next 200 years and more.
The Holocene
Solar activity and Temperature a direct result of
Angular Momentum?
A very common occurrence over the centuries is
Solar activity peaks happening just after
angular momentum peak and DURING a period of
angular momentum disturbance just like we had at the start of the Dalton around 1790.
It will take time for
Angular Momentum Theory (AMT) to take hold, but the house of cards of the last 50 years of
solar science will eventually crumble, showing us all how little we really know.
135: It has been suggested that the 100 ka cycle in oxygen isotope data is due to changes in orbital inclination relative to the invariable plane (perpendicular to the
solar system's
angular momentum).
Now, Leif, the cause of the turbulent field or natural convection is the suitable flow of energy from the
solar core against gravity towards the surface, and the laws of fluid dynamics under conditions in which the convective cell has rotational and orbital components of
angular momentum as determined by the path of the sun the planets force it to follow.
``... this background modulation is very important when considering
angular momentum and its effects of
solar cycle modulation..»
That means that all the barycentric [and
solar velocity,
angular momentum, etc] stuff is out, and we should [as W&P] concentrate on finding how tidal forces can do this.
Obviously you have come to this conclusion by comparing
angular momentum disturbances to
solar activity, therefore you can not say that this agreement supports your hypothesis.
The disordered inner loop orbit along with the
angular momentum perturbation (barycentric anomaly) is quantifiable using multiple methods, so we can differentiate between strong medium and weak disruptions to
solar activity in respect to grand minima.
And of course you arrive to your destiny: a hypothesis that explains
solar variability in terms of
angular momentum changes.
But it defines a spacing between the two lows in
solar activity and the two highs in
angular momentum perturbation of 2500 years.
If your curve can reproduce those features without further adjustment to quantification method it would inspire more confidence that it is not the product of an artificial match between
angular momentum changes and
solar activity.
kinetic
angular momentum between the atmosphere, in which a flow would be generated by
solar activity,
Well,
solar system mass is concentrated in the sun but

There are no changes in
Angular Momentum or LOD related to the
solar wind.
