The body of the Sun also has a magnetic field as do sunspots. They are not flying out at 400 km/s. Anyway, I have no interest in defending that theory. I am proposing an alternative that has a moderate correlation with that theory in its predictions, but is based on an entirely different mechanism.

Okay, let's forget about what has already been done.

The important thing is that if you accept that there is a doubling (or 5/3 times) effect of gravity on radiation (which was proven in the Eclipse experiments) then the central part of the Sun experiences a different rate of acceleration from what the surface experiences. Because of rapid mixing of momentum between radiation and matter, this acceleration applies to the matter there.

The fact of the perihelion motion of Mercury shows that relativistic effects behave the same for non-relativistically moving objects. I am most definitely not in agreement that there is a doubling of whatever in the Sun. You will first have to show the math and observations that this is so and that it only works on photons and relativistically moving bodies.

It was proven in the Eclipse observations that light was bent twice as much as expected in Newtonian theory. That bending is an acceleration and a change in momentum. That momentum is being transfered to matter at every interaction between radiation and matter in the solar interior.
There are no papers on this topic. No-one has ever calculated the accumulation of momentum that happens on contained radiation before.
Yes. An approximate syzygy of Jupiter, Venus and Earth occurs every 1.6 years, but good syzygys occur at intervals averaging 11.07 years although they are clustered around 10.38 and 12.00 years. There is definitely something in the tidal hypothesis. I am just showing that there is also an additional effect of the planets on the sun.

If you would read de Jager and Versteegh you would see that there is nothing in the tidal hypothesis, as all effects are several orders of magnitude smaller than e.g. the convectional forces in the Sun where the dynamo action is working.
Like I said, read up on recent stuff, your idea may not be written down yet, but there is definitely enough stuff that may help you to stay on the right track. Don't try to re-invent the wheel.
