Analysis of Beta-Decay Rates for Ag108, Ba133, Eu152, Eu154, Kr85, Ra226 And Sr90, Measured at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt from 1990 to 1996

Peter A. Sturrock, Ephraim Fischbach, Jere Jenkins

We present the results of an analysis of measurements of the beta-decay rates of Ag108, Ba133, Eu152, Eu154, Kr85, Ra226, and Sr90 acquired at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesans…

Phenomenology of Rate-Related Nonlinear Effects in Nuclear Spectroscopy

J. M. Nistor, J. M. Heim, E. Fischbach +2

A series of recent reports suggest that the decay rates of several isotopes may have been influenced by solar activity (perhaps by solar neutrinos). A mechanism in which neutrinos…

Transfer Functions for the DAMA Experiments

Peter A. Sturrock, Jeffrey Scargle, Ephraim Fischbach +2

We examine what can and what cannot be revealed by the available DAMA dataset by computing the relevant amplitude transfer function (the ratio of the amplitude of the detected sign…

Time-Varying Nuclear Decay Parameters and Dark Matter

Jonathan Nistor, Ephraim Fischbach, John T. Gruenwald +3

Recently published data suggest a possible solar influence on some nuclear decay rates, including evidence for an annual variation attributed to the varying Earth-Sun distance. Her…

Power-Spectrum Analysis of Reconstructed DAMA Data

P. A. Sturrock, E. Fischbach, J. T. Gruenwal +6

Claims by the DAMA (DArk MAtter) collaboration to have detected an annually varying signal consistent with models of dark matter appear to be at variance with results from other da…

The Case for a Solar Influence on Certain Nuclear Decay Rates

Peter Sturrock, Ephraim Fischbach, Daniel Javorsek +2

Power-spectrum analyses of the decay rates of certain nuclides reveal (at very high confidence levels) an annual oscillation and periodicities that may be attributed to solar rotat…
