On the nature of the steep changes in solar and geomagnetic activity after 1705, 1923 and 1993

It was shown that the 11-year cycle amplitude modulation has suffered an ascending chaotic transition after 1923, leading the solar mean magnetic field almost to duplicate in less than 30 years, and that a descending transition started at year 1993.To investigate the nature of these steep changes we...
