The article leaves out an important part of cosmic rays. The radiation comes from both the sun and from outside the solar system, especially the high energy cosmic rays which are likely due to radiation escaping from black holes.

I read a book (can't remember the name) that posits that lower sun activity lessens the protective power of Earth's magnetic shield allowing more cosmic rays into the atmosphere, thus inducing cloud nucleation and hence greater cloudiness which cools the Earth.

There's so much we don't know.
