NEWSCIENCENEWSCIENCENEWSCIENCE STUDYING THE HUMAN ELECTROMAGNETIC AURA magnetic field in the 0.5 to 15 0 kHz range, with a frequency analysis of the received noise signal. Several researchers® have concluded that some biological objects, including human beings, are sources of flicker-noise fluctua- tions (I/F—noise whose spectral density depends upon frequency in keeping with the law IFP = 0.8...1.4). The proposed instrument is intended to evaluate the human electromagnetic field on the basis of phase aurometry. This is accomplished by using the digital filtering method to single out specific frequency components from a broad spectrum of that field's flicker-noise characteristic, and to perform, on each fixed frequency, a topo- graphic evaluation of the human field by registering its dimensions and geometry in the form of an aura. The instrument records the phase shift of the oscillations of the selected frequency at each specific point of that field, both in the immediate vicinity (2 to 3 mm) of the body and at dis- tances of up to 1.5 m. The obtained mea- surement results are used to plot a spatial topogram of that electromagnetic field, which serves in evaluating a person's health etatne tion of the human body.'? However, except for the electromagnetic fields of the stomach (fractions of one Hertz)’ and the heart (a few Hertz)’, this radiation is recorded by most researchers only as "noise", which is a sum-total of fre- quencies ranging from 0.01 to 100,000 Hz. The recording is accomplished by means of electrometer amplifiers, whose output signal is fed to an oscillograph or electronic voltmeter.* The electrometer amplifiers used for the purpose are wide-band AC devices with a sensitivity from 0.001 to 1.000 microvolts, equipped with a probing antenna. The high input resistance (1 to 1,000,000 MQ) and low input capacity (below 10 pF) of the amplifiers enable them to amplify the entire range of fre- quencies that constitute noise of varying spectral density. It is noteworthy that no radiation of the human body has been reg- istered in the 10 to 100,000 kHz range.’ Most researchers are currently involved in recording signals in the thermal microwave and EHF range (1 to 10 GHz), and the infrared and optical range. A series of devices (such as the IR Imager) has been developed for the purpose, which register the human body's electromagnetic fields and make it possible to identify various pathologies characterised by a differing electromagnetic field intensity.'* In this article we describe an instrument, designed for medical research, involving the remote sensing of the human electro- wo Russian scientists, the engineer T= inventor Yuri Kravchenko, and the physician Nikolai Kalashchenko, have developed an original instrument: the Phase Aurometer. This is a highly sensi- tive instrument for the remote measurement of the electromagnetic radiation of any object, biological included. The instrument and the method are protected by a Certificate of Authorship, No. 321662, issued in 1990.” A medical version of the phase aurome- ter is in use at the Republican Clinical Hospital in Ufa, Bashkortostan. The instrument records the patient's own radia- tion by a contact-free method, and has no impact whatever on the environment. It is intended for screening the population and for clinical research. The applications of the phase aurometer can be considerably expanded further—for example, into the insurance business, dowsing, testing folk-healers and sensi- tives, and into such seemingly distant fields as agricultural selection or construction and performance supervision. Advances in biophysics, and the deep penetration of physical techniques into medicine, both in Russia and in other coun- tries, have made possible studies involving the remote measurement (at distances of up to one metre) of the electromagnetic radia- status.

It differs from standard instruments of the same class in that it has a digital fil- ter, replacing regular LC circuits to ensure a ‘narrower’ band- width, and a phase- sensitive (instead of amplitude-sensitive) detector which makes it possible to evaluate the relative phase- shift of the oscilla- tions selected by the digital filter. The digital filtering circuit improves the Figure 1: Aurogram of a person in good health Figure 2: Aurogram of a person in poor health | noise immunity of the (distances in centimetres) (distances in centimetres) instrument and dis- 42 « NEXUS OCTOBER - NOVEMBER 1995
