ON PROPER TIME OF THE SOURCE OF A STRONG EARTHQUAKE

The physics of earthquakes was contriubuted to by the concept proper time source a strong earthquake, which is different from universal (calendar) time. earlier idea implicit and has been considered only in relation aftershocks. present paper extends applicability time, proposes possible way its measuring, provides an example illustrate procedure for sequential ordering object this study global activity (M≥7) earthquakes. We consider sequence as Poisson-type random process. Comparatively weak are used "underground clock", tick marks Poisson distribution compared with distributions two sequences One ordered another - studies indicate events closer than that attribute non-stationarity geological medium, immanent property Earth's lithosphere.
