The novel pushing gravity model and volcanic activity. Is alignment of planets with compact stars a possible cause of natural phenomena?

Abstract

We developed the model, and carried out its discussion at the PIRT-2021 conference, within the framework of the research topic “External Forcing on Volcanoes and Volcanic Processes: Observations, Analysis and Implications” announced by the journal “Frontiers in Earth Science” in October 2020. Besides other, external processes considered in this Research Topic included astronomical. In this study, in the category “Hypothesis and Theory”, we investigate how changes in the position of large bodies of the Solar system can cause natural phenomena, associated with the movement of free masses, such as volcanism, earthquakes and landslides in the lithosphere, as well as various catastrophic events in the atmosphere and hydrosphere. The analysis has shown that the discovered phenomena of celestial bodies’ alignments accompanying manifestations of natural phenomena require going beyond the standard cosmological model and clarify the fundamental mechanism of gravity. We propose the novel Bidirectional Pushing Gravitation model (BPG), which, in addition to application in Earth Sciences, may occur useful in Astrophysics, Cosmology and Gravitation research.

On the external forcing of global eruptive activity in the past 300 years

“…Similar observations have been made for large earthquakes as well (e.g., Jensen, 1902;Mazzarella and Palumbo, 1988;Marchitelli et al, 2020). Furthermore, it appears that the occurrence of some of these major events, whether seismic or volcanic (such as the eruption of Pinatubo in 1991), is associated with specific planetary alignments (e.g., Greco and Krasnyy, 2021;Safronov, 2022). However, most of these correlations/associations between local geological phenomena and global processes such as solar activity or planetary alignment are widely debated (e.g., Akhoondzadeh and De Santis, 2022), primarily due to a major challenge: the lack of a credible physical mechanism (e.g., Jensen, 1902;Stothers, 1989;Marchitelli et al, 2020).…”
