Default New theory for the formation of the solar system

Another bald-faced assertion without evidence.



It is not assertion it is well known fact:
http://solartheory.nrl.navy.mil/sola...e-topology.pdf




From the ABSTRACT of that paper:


"...only the general topological properties of those
regions on the Sun where the field extends from the
photosphere out to interplanetary space, the so-called
open field regions that are usually observed as coronal
holes."



I don't think "open field" means what you think it does...



Now, no doubt there are *some* interactions with external
magnetic fields, tempered by the shielding effect of the
heliopause. But certainly the vast majority of the Sun's
magnetic field lines originate and terminate in the Sun.


You can read here how the magnetic field of the sun was measured with
probe Ulysses and showed that the magnetic field of the sun is not
dipole as would expected if the magnetic field of the sun was produced
inside the sun. The sun magnetic field is not produced by the sun
itself but originate at the galactic disk. Search the Parker model
(dipole) that was replaced with the Fisk model.

"It is suspected that pressure gradients near the Sun are
responsible for redistributing the magnetic flux." No
mention of external fields inducing the Sun's.

"The direction of the high latitude magnetic field was found
to be slightly more azimuthal (more tighly wound) than the
predicted Parker spiral (Forsyth et al. 1995)"

Hardly seems revolutionary, nor inducative of support
for your theories.


For the star rotation axis you can read in the link below that only a
minimum value can be given to the rotation. The measurement is done
with broadening of the spectral lines.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_rotation


What's that got to do with determining the _orientation_
of the spin axis? The fact that only a minimum velocity
can be determined is because the axis may be oriented in
such a way that it is more or less pointing at us, so
much of the rotational motion does not produce a doppler
shift along our line of sight. This still allows us to
assign an orientation to the spin axis -- along the line
of sight.

Given a random distribution of spin axis orientations, one
can work out the statistical expectations of observing
spin axes in various orientations as 'projected' onto the
celestial sphere. What is observed in reality is what is
expected of such a random distribution.
