Analysis of environmental influences in nuclear half-life measurements exhibiting time-dependent decay rates

RADIOACTIVITY ²²⁶Ra(α), ³²Si(β^-), ³⁶Cl(β^-), (EC); analyzed available data for correlation between Earth-Sun distance and data taken at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL), and at the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB); deduced correlations could arise from a direct interaction between the decaying nuclei and some particles or fields emanating from the Sun, they could also represent an "environmental" effect arising from a seasonal variation of the sensitivities of the BNL and PTB detectors due to changes in temperature, relative humidity, background radiation.
