Ideas which I found particularly interesting are
• the epitrochoid – the (spirograph-type) movement of the solar system barycenter ...
• snip
• … Minimum or no activity occurs whilst the sun is in the chaotic phase |
Interesting, when I read this message, I thought that you had summarized what was in the paper. Downloading the paper, I noticed that this message is basically one whole subsection of the paper.
This is, in my opinion, a very bad summary because nothing is really said,only keyword are mentioned. I guess one has to read all the papers that are mentioned, which would take a lot of time. I think this is just a write down of a speech Mackey gave at that symposium.
Unfortunately, I cannot at the moment download De Jager and Versteegh nor Shirley, so I cannot make any comments on what exactly has been done. Maybe later.
