Video: Sun will ‘go to sleep’ in 2030 and might cause ice age – say scientists Posted on July 12, 2015 by Robert Santos

LLANDUDNO, Wales – Scientist warns that Earth could be facing a ‘mini ice age’ threat as researchers, through their new study, predicted that solar cycles will cancel each other out between 2020 and 2030, Daily Mail reported. Researchers said that when solar cycles cancel each other out, it will lead to a phenomenon known as the “Maunder minimum.” Maunder minimum is the same phenomenon which happened between 1646 and 1715, or the mini ice age that caused London’s River Thames to freeze over. According to Conspiracy Club, the new model of the Sun’s solar cycle is producing unprecedentedly accurate predictions of irregularities within the Sun’s 11-year heartbeat. The prediction draws on dynamo effects in two layers of the Sun; one which is close to the surface and another one lying deep within its convection zone. As suggested by the prediction from the solar cycle’s model, solar activity will fall by 60 per cent during the 2030s to conditions last seen during the ‘mini ice age’ that began in 1645. This was confirmed by Professor Valentina Zharkova at the National Astronomy Meeting in Llandudno, in Wales during results presentation. If the model’s prediction is right, the pair of waves become increasingly offset during Cycle 25, which will peak in year 2022. Following this scenario, in Cycle 26 covering decades from 2030-2040, the two waves will become exactly out of synch, which then will cause a significant reduction in solar activity. “In cycle 26, the two waves exactly mirror each other – peaking at the same time but in opposite hemispheres of the Sun. Their interaction will be disruptive, or they will nearly cancel each other,” said Zharkova.

When they are out of phase, we have solar minimums. When there is full phase separation, we have the conditions last seen during the Maunder minimum, 370 years ago,” the professor further explained. End Time Headlines reported that it had been 172 years since a scientist first spotted that the Sun’s activity varies over a cycle lasting around 10 to 12 years. However, every cycle is a little different from each other that even with the advancement in technology happened, none of the models available can fully explain the fluctuations. Solar physicist around the globe believed that the reduction of solar cycle is directly connected to a dynamo caused by convecting fluid deep within the Sun. Zharkova and her team have discover that adding a second dynamo, which will be situated close to the surface of the Sun, completes the theory with surprising accuracy. “We found magnetic wave components appearing in pairs, originating in two different layers in the Sun’s interior. They both have a frequency of approximately 11 years, although this frequency is slightly different, and they are offset in time,” the professor said. “Over the cycle, the waves fluctuate between the northern and southern hemispheres of the Sun. Combining both waves together and comparing to real data for the current solar cycle, we found that our predictions showed an accuracy of 97%,” she added. In order to make their model, Zharkova and her use a technique called “principal component analysis” of the magnetic field observations done by Wilcox Solar Observatory in California. The research included three solar cycles-worth of magnetic field activity, covering the period from 1976-2008. Aside from field observations, they also compared their predictions to average sunspot numbers, which is another strong marker of solar activity.
