He is best known for his solar and cosmic-ray hypothesis of climate change. In 2002, Shaviv hypothesised that passages through the Milky Way's spiral arms appear to have been the cause behind the major ice-ages over the past billion years. In his later work, co-authored by Jan Veizer, a low upper limit was placed on the climatic effect of CO2.[2]
His best known contribution to the field of astrophysics was to demonstrate that the Eddington luminosity is not a strict limit,[3] namely, that astrophysical objects can be brighter than the Eddington luminosity without blowing themselves apart. This is achieved through the development of a porous atmosphere that allows the radiation to escape while exerting little force on the gas. The theory was correctly used to explain the mass-loss in Eta Carinae's giant eruption, and the evolution of classical nova eruptions.[4]
Shaviv is affiliated with several organisations active in climate change denial such asThe Heartland Institute and CFACT and a regular speaker at conferences organized by climate deniers.[5] According to German TV magazine Monitor he is one of the stars of the climate denial movement.[6]
