Abstract

Overview

This paper explores the influence of variations in solar activity on the human nervous system, investigating its downstream effects on heart variability and behavior during social interactions.

Findings

  • The study confirms that solar activity, through charged solar particles, prominently alters Earth's electromagnetic fields.
  • These changes have a significant impact on heart rate variability, specifically within the very low frequency (VLF), low frequency (LF), and high frequency (HF) bands.
  • The relationship between psychophysiological data and solar activity was closely examined, highlighting considerable effects on the low-level electromagnetic field.

Conclusion

The research provides insights into how low-level electromagnetic field alterations due to solar activity can affect heart variability, potentially explaining sudden deaths and heart failures.
