Abstract
IT has long been realized that earthquakes are often associated with various kinds of anomalous electromagnetic phenomena. These phenomena might be caused by rock failure in the Earth's crust, but the details of the mechanisms are still unknown. Here we describe an attempt to measure the emission of charged particles from rocks undergoing indentation fracture under atmospheric conditions, using a specially designed indentation system.
