A Is Solar Wind Formed by Planetary Resonance and Solar Cycles?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the claim that solar wind is influenced by planetary resonance and solar cycles, referencing a controversial paper. Participants express skepticism about the validity of the paper, highlighting the author's lack of relevant expertise, as he is a civil engineer with no background in astrophysics. Concerns are raised about drawing conclusions from insufficient research and the credibility of the author's theories. The thread concludes with a warning against accepting unverified claims from individuals outside their fields of expertise. Ultimately, the conversation emphasizes the importance of rigorous scientific validation in understanding solar phenomena.

so the solar wind is the result of resonance of orbiting planets, and solar cycles too, after this paper

[Link to crackpot paper deleted]

Welcome to PF;
Sure - why not?
But be careful about drawing conclusions from too few papers.

The author of that paper is a civil engineer specializing in water management who has tried to make his own personal theories on several topics completely unrelated to his field of study. He's a crackpot, pure and simple. Don't believe anything he says about anything outside of civil engineering.

Thread locked.

TL;DR Summary: In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation. In case of failure to detect alien signals, it will further expand the radius of the so-called silence (or rather, radio silence) of the Universe. Is there any sense in this or is blissful ignorance better? In 3 years, the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) telescope (or rather, a system of telescopes) should be put into operation.

Thread 'Could gamma-ray bursts have an intragalactic origin?'
This is indirectly evidenced by a map of the distribution of gamma-ray bursts in the night sky, made in the form of an elongated globe. And also the weakening of gamma radiation by the disk and the center of the Milky Way, which leads to anisotropy in the possibilities of observing gamma-ray bursts. My line of reasoning is as follows: 1. Gamma radiation should be absorbed to some extent by dust and other components of the interstellar medium. As a result, with an extragalactic origin, fewer...
