From office at geophysicsjournal.com Mon Jul 1 14:23:14 2024 From: office at geophysicsjournal.com (Journal of Geophysics) Date: Mon, 01 Jul 2024 16:23:14 -0400 Subject: CEDAR email: The most important discovery of 2023: what (really) runs the Sun and trillions of solar-type stars (and it's not nuclear) - as they drive seismicity on their planets and moons Message-ID: <3edd5c87fd1aed170af7e302d916b58c@geophysicsjournal.com> NEWS (1) - The Sun as a revolving-field magnetic alternator with a wobbling-core rotator from real data, https://n2t.net/ark:/88439/x080008 - Two centuries-long mystery solved: the Sun acts as a magnetic alternator, not dynamo: https://www.openpr.com/news/3337049/the-most-important-discovery-of-2023-what-really-runs-the-sun (2) - Scientists now know that (and how) the Sun paces strong quakes ? and not just on Earth: https://www.openpr.com/news/2982920/scientists-now-know-that-and-how-the-sun-paces-strong-quakes - How stars drive seismicity on planets and moons: Sun resonant forcing of Mars, Moon, and Earth seismicity, https://n2t.net/ark:/88439/x040901 MAIN TAKEAWAYS: - the study paints for the first time a complete picture of the macroscopic dynamics of the Sun (99.9% of the solar system's mass) - first-ever conclusive direct (from in situ data) detection of the solar core and its global dynamics - the core does not share a common center of mass with the rest of the Sun but lays instead off-center towards the south - the eccentric core then naturally wobbles once every ~2 years, causing the Sun to resonate like any operating motor engine - unlike engines firmly caged to prevent vibrational damage, the cageless Sun vibrates freely and completely - complete (including excess) global vibration consists indeed of constructive (resonance) and destructive (antiresonance) vibration - incessant vibration causes the Sun to (differentially) spin and emit its excess mass into space as the solar wind - the Sun thus continuously behaves as an ordinary engine (revolving-field motor) rather than impulsively as an elusive dynamo - the Sun's magnetic polarity reverses every ca. 11 years due to the wobbling core flipping under the global vibration - interior engine sparking manifests on the surface as sunspots; surface engine sparking?as nanoflares and explosions (CMEs) - explained the 154-day Rieger period in the solar wind's flapping, which dominates the solar system, e.g., causes seismicity (https://n2t.net/ark:/88439/x040901) - the discovery is in excellent agreement with sunspot historical records, remote data, and the experiment - the new result then instantly replaced the dynamo concept/models with the magnetic alternator from mechanical engineering - as based on verified reproducible computations from in situ/global data at highest energies, the results are conclusive/unquestionable - the new standard Sun applies to the >100 billion trillions of little-understood Sun-type stars (most, not counting dwarfs).

Session Description: Understanding the confluence of energy and momentum processes that interconnect Earth?s upper atmosphere with terrestrial weather from below and space weather from above presents a captivating scientific problem. The Ionosphere-Thermosphere-Mesosphere (ITM) system is highly responsive to external drivers such as solar irradiance and solar wind-magnetospheric forcing, and fluctuations driven by lower-atmosphere waves. Planetary waves, tides, persistent gravity waves, and recurrent magnetospheric forcing contribute to ongoing ITM variability across timescales from years to hours. Superimposed upon those are abrupt disturbances triggered by terrestrial events such as thunderstorms/hurricanes/volcano eruptions/sudden stratospheric warmings, and geomagnetic storms from space. These processes can occur simultaneously, making forecasts of the ITM system challenging. The goal of this session is to advance the understanding of whole atmosphere interconnections between terrestrial weather (waves) and space weather, their relative importance, and the ITM responses to sudden disturbances from both terrestrial and space origins as well as their potential interactions. The 2024 AGU Fall Meeting will be held in Washington, DC from 9-13 December 2024, and the abstract submission deadline is 31 July 2024 23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT. We look forward to your contributions and to see you in Washington, DC.

The forcing of these regions and the many different processes involved vary over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales, hindering accurate determination of these fundamental parameters critical to satellite operations and radio communications. Past and current space missions, field campaigns, as well as theoretical and modeling advances, have led to a new understanding of how and why the dominant drivers of upper atmospheric composition, winds, and temperatures in these regions change over different spatial and temporal scales. This session, therefore, seeks to highlight various topics surrounding middle and upper atmospheric composition, wind, and temperature measurements, their variability, and the prominent mechanisms that drive their spatial, seasonal, and inter-annual variability from theoretical, observational, and modeling perspectives. We look forward to your contribution to our AGU session. Please note that the abstract submission deadline is Wednesday, 31 July 2024 at 23:59 EDT/03:59+1 GMT. Thank you.
