Environmental Supramolecular Physics: Climatic and Biophysical Effects

摘要

The results of studies on channels of influence of major manifestations of solar-geomagnetic activity, such as solar flares and magnetic storms, on weather, the climate, and humans are presented. The accompanying energy fluxes are completely absorbed by the Earth's ionosphere, causing emissive radiation in the microwave (UHF, SHF, and EHF) range. It is shown that this microwave radiation can control the origination of optically thin cloudiness by creating a condensation-cluster haze in the troposphere. A similar approach is proposed for the mechanism of forming water associates in the human organism. Processes from atomic physics and the physics of atomic collisions are used, implying that the effect of cluster formation is determined by the fact that the orbital angular momentum of Rydberg electrons (participating in the neutralization of the associates' charge) grows in the microwave field. Quantitative estimations of the effects of clusterization during a global magnetic storm agree well with the available experiments.
