Deformation-Electromagnetic Relations in Lithospheric Activity Manifestations

• DOI

It has been shown that dipole radiation of accelerated charges, described by Larmor relation, is the basis of the known mechanic-electromagnetic processes of rock deformation. Comparison of crust deformation acceleration with natural electromagnetic field parameters of ELF-VLF range showed good relation. It manifests in the maxima of occurrence frequency density of synchronous deformation-electromagnetic events on two dimensional histograms. The data of a laser strain-meter and a recorder of natural electromagnetic radiation of ELF-VLF range, recorded in a zone of increased seismic activity (Kamchatka, Karymshina site), were used. The authors made an assumption on the existence of stationary regions of deformation process and mechanic-electromagnetic transformations corresponding to regions with different mechanic properties and rock petrographic composition.
