Abstract
Sun–Jupiter decade-scale magnetic entanglement emerges from Wilcox
Solar Observatory 1975-2021 N–S ≲150 μT mean-field data, as a global
response of solar magnetic fields to the magnetar-type evolution of
Jupiter ~2001–onward global magnetoactivity discovered
recently in the 1–6 month (385.8–64.3 nHz) band of Rieger resonance.
At extreme ≲20% field variance, the sudden Jovian deviation is so high
it forced solar magnetoactivity devolution into inverse-matching
response, at effectively moderate ≲1.5% mean-field variance. Thus as
Jupiter magnetoactivity evolved sinusoidally, the Sun began
mirror-compensating ~2002 (the epoch of Abbe number
drop), reducing its magnetoactivity in decreasingly sinusoidal fashion
to solar cycle 24 extreme minimum. For check, 2004-2021 WIND mission
data revealed <0.5-var% (<5-dB) calm ≲50 nT
interplanetary magnetic field at L1, slightly undulated by the Jupiter
evolution impulse, thus excluding solar wind and Sun as impulse sources
(confirmed by statistical fidelity waning down Jupiter–L1–Sun
diffusion vector spaces, as 10^7–10^3–10^2). Magnetic
tangling of stars and hot (<0.1 AU) Jupiters was blamed
previously for observed star superflaring 10^2–10^7 times more
energetic than the strongest solar flare. Accordingly, the Sun
ante-impulse locking is a shock-absorbing mechanism — routine
shutter-response to Jupiter recurrent phasing into the flare-brown-dwarf
state — with which the Sun enters a grand minimum (sleep mode). As
Jupiter intermittently becomes an indirect driver of Earth’s climate,
the Sun prepares to discharge stored energy as a non-extinction
~10^32-erg superflare (currently overdue). The
mechanism, in which warm/cold Jupiters too trigger (mild) superflares,
possibly defends stars against incoming Jupiters.
