No Influence of Passing Stars on Paleoclimate Reconstructions Over the Past 56 Million Years by Richard E. Zeebe, David M. Hernandez

“…Based on a simplified solar system model, omitting the Moon and the Sun’s quadrupole moment J _2 , it has recently been suggested that passing stars are also an important driver of paleoclimate before ∼50 Myr ago, including a climate event called the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (∼56 Myr ago). In contrast, using a state-of-the-art solar system model, including a lunar contribution and J _2 , and random stellar parameters (>400 simulations), we find no influence of passing stars on paleoclimate reconstructions over the past 56 Myr. …”
