Two hypotheses of modern warming are considered: natural and anthropogenic. The probabilities of each of them are compared. It is proved that the hypothesis of natural warming is much more likely than the hypothesis of anthropogenic warming. It is shown that the displacement of the Sun from the center of mass of the solar system directly affects the temperature of the surface atmosphere in the synoptic regions of Eurasia. This result corresponds to the model of E. P. Borysenkov with variations of the solar constant or, equivalently, with variations of the Bond albedo. We consider how natural causes of warming affect the temperature of the surface atmosphere on the example of the South of Western Siberia.

When a surface is a full radiator and absorber its temperature can be determined at once by the fourth-power law if we know the rate at which it is radiating energy. If it is radiating what it receives from the sun, then a knowledge of the solar constant enables us to find the temperature. We can thus make estimates of the highest temperature which a surface can reach when it is only receiving heat from the sun. We can also make more or less approximate estimates of the temperatures of the planetary surfaces by assuming conditions under which the radiation takes place, and we can determine, fairly exactly, the temperatures of very small bodies in interplanetary space. These determinations require a knowledge of the constant of radiation and of either the solar constant or the effective temperature of the sun, either of which, as is well known, can be found from the other by means of the radiation constant. It will be convenient to give here the values of these quantities before proceeding to apply them to our special problems.

The Helios 1 spacecraft was launched in December 1974 into a heliocentric orbit of 0.3 AU perihelion distance. It carries on board a micro-meteoroid experiment which contains two sensors with a total sensitive area of 121 cm2. The ecliptic sensor measures dust particles which have trajectories with elevations from −45° to +55° with respect to the ecliptic plane. The south sensor detects dust particles from −90° to −4°. The ecliptic sensor is covered by a thin film (3000 Å parylene coated with 750 Å aluminium) as protection against solar radiation. The other sensor is shielded by the spacecraft rim from direct sunlight and has an open aperture. Micrometeoroids are detected by the electric charge produced upon impact and the ions are mass analysed in a time-of-flight-spectrometer. During the first 6 orbits of Helios 1 around the sun the experiment registered a total of 168 meteoroids, 52 particles were detected by the ecliptic sensor and 116 particles by the south sensor. Most impacts on the ecliptic sensor were observed when it was pointing in the direction of motion of Helios (apex direction). In contrast to that the south sensor detected most impacts when it was facing in between the solar and antapex directions. Orbit analysis showed that the “apex” particles which are predominantly detected by the ecliptic sensor have eccentricities e < 0.4 or semimajor axes a < 0.5 AU. From comparison with corresponding data from the south sensor it is concluded that the average inclination of these particles is below 30°. The excess of impacts on the south sensor have orbit eccentricities e > 0.5 AU. β-meteoroids which leave the solar system on hyperbolic orbits are directly identified by the imbalance of outgoing (away from the sun) and ingoing particles. Mass analyses of the spectra showed that 40% of the observed spectra have the peak abundance above mass 35 amu which are preliminarily identified as iron meteoroids. 40% of the spectra have the peak abundance below mass 35 amu which correspond to chondritic composition. 20% of the spectra could not be identified in either class.

Besides translation, spin around its axis and rotation around center of the Milky Way, the Sun performs relative motion in the solar system Laplacian plane, also. This motion was anticipated by Newton himself, in his Principia. The form of the Sun?s orbit is substantially different from the other solar system bodies? orbits. Namely, the Sun moves along the path composed of the chain of large and small loops [1, 2, 6, 9]. This chain is situated within the circular outline with the diameter approximately twice as large as the Sun?s is. Under supposition that the solar system is stable, the Sun is going to move along it, in the same region, for eternity, never reitereiting the same path. It was also shown in this work that velocity and acceleration of the Sun?s center of mass are completely defined by the relative velocities and accelerations of the planets with respect to the Sun.

We can calculate an upper limit to the temperatures of fully absorbing or “black” surfaces receiving their heat from the sun, and on certain assumptions we can find the temperatures of planetary surfaces, if we accept the fourth power law of radiation, since we know approximately the solar constant, that is, the rate of reception of heat from the sun, and the radiation constant, that is, the energy radiated at 1° abs. by a fully radiating surface. The effective temperature of space calculated from the very uncertain data at our command is of the order 10° abs. Bodies in interplanetary space and at a much higher temperature may, therefore, be regarded as being practically in a zero temperature enclosure except in so far as they receive heat from the sun.

Zoya Ilyinichna Glezer is the largest Russian micropaleontologist, a specialist in siliceous microfossils — Cenozoic diatoms and silicoflagellates. Since the 1960s, she systematically studied Paleogene siliceous microfossils from various regions of the country and therefore was an indispensable participant in the development of unified stratigraphic schemes for Paleogene siliceous plankton of various regions of the USSR. She made a great contribution to the creation of the newest Paleogene schemes in the south of European Russia and Western Siberia, to the correlations of the Paleogene deposits of the Kara Sea.
