In an unusual study, Norwegian scientists claim people born during periods of solar calm may live around five years longer than those born when the sun is feisty.

挪威科学家进行的一项与众不同的研究称：出生于太阳平静期的人的寿命可能比出生于太阳活跃期的人长五年左右。

They argue peak solar activity brings higher levels of ultraviolet radiation to Earth, which may increase infant mortality by degrading folic acid, or vitamin B9.

他们称太阳活动高峰期，地球受紫外线辐射程度增大，婴儿体内叶酸（维生素B9）含量降低，从而导致婴儿死亡率增高。

Both of these are key to rapid cell division and growth that happens during pregnancy.

这个奇特的结果是该科研组在制作人口数据时得出的，调查对象为1676年到1878年出生的挪威人口，同时还研究了当时的太阳活动。

The lifespan of those born in periods of solar maximum - interludes marked by powerful solar flares - was '5.2 years shorter' on average than those born during a solar minimum, they found.

Solar maxima are marked by an increase in sunspots, solar flares and coronal mass ejections that can disrupt radio communications and electrical power on Earth, damage satellites and disturb navigational equipment.

太阳极大期的特征有：太阳黑子、太阳耀斑活跃和日冕质量抛射。期间，地球上的无线电通讯和电器会收到很大干扰，卫星、航海仪器也会遭到破坏。
