Might have some relevance, as big solar flares can disrupt power grids.
Its also possible that the "great solar flare" of 1859 as well as the 2006 one could have been triggered by such a collision.
Disclaimer:- axions are theoretical particles that have not yet been observed but may be discovered during future high
energy LHC collisions.
Disclaimer 2:- "New Scientist" is about as reliable as the "Fortean Times" for discussing actual real world physics rather than wild speculation probably while on illicit large molecule substances.

Still, it is at least a neat looking site, even if some of the stuff reads like the National Enquirer.
