Project Gamma is a collaboration between the FGK and the Ancient
Astronaut Society (AAS).
By using a specifically designed long-term measuring device built exclusively
by Sascha Jakoblew, it is possible to measure radio-active gamma rays,
without the need of any personal supervision, for several month.
Inside the measuring device a highly efficient and sensitive Geiger counter
is used to detect the gamma-quanta falling in.
The device counts these gamma-quanta over periods of 20 seconds and digitally
stores the measured value into an EPROM memorychip which can be read by
a computer that also allows evaluation the data at a later date.
The measuring device can be set up for long term measurements at any
given location.
Within the scope of the FGK-research its main use will be the measureing
of radio-activity in crop formations. Here it is possible to keep the development
of the natural (or possibly crop circle phenomenon-affected) gamma activity
under surveillance. In the past different groups reported on anomalous
measurements of radio-activity but in all of those cases only a short period
of time was involved and the device used was less sensitive. Therefore
it can't be excluded that only statistical variations were involved.
Much more reliable results are now expected.
Within the scope of the research of the AAS the main use of the device
will be measurements at prehistoric places such as stone circles.
Earlier investigations in stone circles have shown anomalous measurements
of radio-activity there, too. These can be verified by the more sensitive
long-term measurements.
The results of the research carried out by the FGK will be published
in the "FGK-Report" (the quarterly
journal of the FGK) and presented at the meetings of the FGK.
The results of the research carried out for the AAS will be published by
the AAS itself.
