This bundle is smaller but thematically tight: unglazed solar collectors, geographical variation, and perihelion. It reads like a geometric and seasonal refinement of the earlier collector work, with more attention to why performance changes by place and time of year.

What is in this bundle

FamilyFilesWhat they contribute
Geographical variation1 PDFLocation-sensitive collector behavior.
Unglazed collectors1 PDFCollector form factor and surface behavior.
Perihelion1 PDFSeasonal / orbital framing.
Sunmen1 PDFBaer’s 2004 manifesto on sun-work, IR scanners, and anti-subsidy philosophy.

Why it matters

collector geometry + latitude + orbit = performance context

The bundle is a raw-source summary, not a conclusion page. It preserves provenance for the file family and points to the compiled concept pages that already distill the ideas.
