It concerns a paper available to read at http://arxiv.org/pdf/1306.2311v1.pdf by Poppenhaeger et al on solar planetary theory. The idea is that solar variation is coincident with changes in the disposition of masses in the solar system – the movement around the Sun by the planets.

It has also been dubbed astrology.
