Neutron Repulsion

TL;DR

This paper proposes that neutron repulsion from a hidden neutron star core powers the Sun, influences solar phenomena, and impacts planetary climate and life evolution, offering a new framework for understanding solar and planetary processes.

Contribution

It introduces neutron repulsion as a key energy source for the Sun, linking nuclear physics to solar activity and planetary climate in a novel way.

Findings

Neutron repulsion is identified as an energy source in nuclear data.

Evidence suggests the Sun formed on a supernova core.

Neutron repulsion influences solar wind and climate cycles.

Abstract

Earth is connected gravitationally, magnetically and electrically to its heat source - a neutron star that is obscured from view by waste products in the photosphere. Neutron repulsion is like the hot filament in an incandescent light bulb. Excited neutrons are emitted from the solar core and decay into hydrogen that glows in the photosphere like a frosted light bulb. Neutron repulsion was recognized in nuclear rest mass data in 2000 as the overlooked source of energy, the keystone of an arch that locked together these puzzling space-age observations: 1.) Excess 136Xe accompanied primordial helium in the stellar debris that formed the solar system (Fig. 1); 2.) The Sun formed on the supernova core (Fig. 2); 3.) Waste products from the core pass through an iron-rich mantle, selectively carrying lighter elements and lighter isotopes of each element into the photosphere (Figs. 3-4); and 4.) Neutron repulsion powers the Sun and sustains life (Figs. 5-7). Together these findings offer a framework for understanding how: a.) The Sun generates and releases neutrinos, energy and solar-wind hydrogen and helium; b.) An inhabitable planet formed and life evolved around an ordinary-looking star; c.) Continuous climate change - induced by cyclic changes in gravitational interactions of the Sun's energetic core with planets - has favored survival by adaptation.
