Solar Influence on Nuclear Decay Rates: Constraints from the MESSENGER Mission
Ephraim Fischbach, K. Joseph Chen, Robert E. Gold +6
We have analyzed Cs-137 decay data, obtained from a small sample onboard the MESSENGER spacecraft en route to Mercury, with the aim of setting limits on a possible correlation betw…
Absence of a self-induced decay effect in 198Au
Richard M. Lindstrom, Ephraim Fischbach, John B. Buncher +2
We report the results of an improved experiment aimed at determining whether the half-life () of Au depends on the shape of the source. In this experiment, the hal…
Concerning the Phases of Annual Variations of Nuclear Decay Rates
Peter A. Sturrock, John B. Buncher, Ephraim Fischbach +3
Recent analyses of datasets acquired at the Brookhaven National Laboratory and at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt both show evidence of pronounced annual variations, sugg…
Analysis of Experiments Exhibiting Time-Varying Nuclear Decay Rates: Systematic Effects or New Physics?
Jere H. Jenkins, Ephraim Fischbach, Peter A. Sturrock +1
Since the 1930s, and with very few exceptions, it has been assumed that the process of radioactive decay is a random process, unaffected by the environment in which the decaying nu…
Evidence for Time-Varying Nuclear Decay Rates: Experimental Results and Their Implications for New Physics
Ephraim Fischbach, Jere H. Jenkins, Peter A. Sturrock
Unexplained annual variations in nuclear decay rates have been reported in recent years by a number of groups. We show that data from these experiments exhibit not only variations…
Further Evidence Suggestive of a Solar Influence on Nuclear Decay Rates
Peter A. Sturrock, Ephraim Fischbach, Jere H. Jenkins
Recent analyses of nuclear decay data show evidence of variations suggestive of a solar influence. Analyses of datasets acquired at the Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) and at…
