Air humidity and annual oscillations in 90Sr/90Y and 60Co decay rate measurements
TL;DR: Parkhomov as discussed by the authors investigated instrument instability induced by environmental parameters, yet did not find a clear coincidence with local temperature, atmospheric pressure, and relative humidity, yet causality could not be unambiguously demonstrated.

Nuclear Decay Parameter Oscillations as Possible Signal of Quantum-Mechanical Nonlinearity
TL;DR: In this paper, the decay process obeys to nonlinear Shroedinger equation and possible corrections to Hamiltonian of quantum system interaction with gravitation field are considered, where modified Doebner-Goldin model predicts decay parameter variations under influence of Sun gravity similar to experimental results for nuclear α-decay life-time oscillations.

Dating and environment using long-lived radionuclides
TL;DR: A brief review of the use of long-lived radionuclides to study our environment at large is presented in this article, where the main advance in this field is due to the development of accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS).
Statistical Analysis of Unexpected Daily Variations in an Electrochemical Transmutation Experiment
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the time courses of the signals of one of the experiments using an advanced signal processing framework and found that in all three signals (D/Pd, T and P) a clear daily oscillation was present while the current density J did not show such an oscillation.
