“Solar composition problem” The mystery of the sun’s missing matter “perhaps we are looking at the sun in the wrong way” S. Palus, NEW SCIENTIST (18th Oct. 2017) https://www.newscientist.com/issue/3148/

Conclusions The analysis of more data: Supports the working hypothesis that streaming invisible particles are focused by the planets and trigger the onset of diverse phenomena. Confirms an even more striking peaking distribution (in planetary longitudes) of solar activity and the electron content of the Ionosphere; tidal related effects are excluded, with the planetary working hypothesis remaining as the only viable scheme. The nature of the ‘invisible matter’ ? Anti-quark nuggets are presently the best candidate and they deserve further consideration. First indication of an invisible stream from the galactic center direction is fitting-in solar + ionosphere data >> FWHM = f(planetary configuration)! We strongly suggest the re-analysis of Dark Matter exp’s like DAMA, KIMS,…, but also other solar system observations. DM searches can profit from temporal signal enhancement like: Sikivie effect, ABRACADABRA, Dish Antenna, CASPEr, EDM osci’s in storage rings. Therefore, ….

Three cases are calculated: Left columne: a particle starts at rest at 12 AU and 266 degrees longitude, Middle: initial velocity of the particle at 12 AU is 70m/s Right: the particle moves with speed of light. From Saturn it would reach the sun in 1.5 hours and we could not observe any angular shift within our resolution or binning, respectively. The table gives the „observed“ position of a planet for that moment when an event is observed at the sun and the planet was crossing a stream of DM at 266 longitude. Horst Fischer
