Observation of periodic fluctuations in the dose rate of gamma-radiation in the Chornobyl exclusion zone

Abstract

The structure of signals from detectors for monitoring the gamma-background around the Chornobyl NPP was considered. It is shown that they are not random, they contain certain regular components. A comparison of the signals obtained on several detectors at the same time undeniably demonstrates that the patterns obtained are not occasional and not erroneous effects.
