4. My proposal, and the intended subject of this thread is that a previously ignored GR effect by planets on radiation and relativistic matter in the Sun's core causes slight convection cells in the solar interior leading to a varying amount of heat reaching the surface and to the production of magnetic fields.
I will deal with the treatment of this GR effect mathematically in a following post, simply outlining the general flow of effects in this post.

I’m not sure if you gave the three proposals (tidal, COM and Jupiter’s moons) to be a statement of mainstream thinking. From what I have read from the current experts on sunspots none of the three proposals you mentioned are ever talked about. I think today’s main expert on Sunspots is NASA’s Dr. David Hathaway and I have never read or heard him speak about planet alignment relative to sunspots. He sees the sun as a dynamo that among other things produces sunspots.
As tusenfem alluded too much has changed since the 1990’s to today; we have observed many things that go onto the list of questions that any theory of the sun or sunspots will need to deal with.
I am anxious to see the physics behind the planets effect on sun’s core. I am hoping that you have more than charts and data that show a correlation. While I am personally convinced there is a correlation of planet position to what we see of sunspots, you are going to have a tough sell convincing me that a planets gravity or magnetism can reach 500,000km into the suns core and affect anything.
