Many observations reliably
exhibit correlations between the magnetic perturbations and seismic responses,
convincing that the magneto-seismicity is not a myth. Magnetic control of the
earthquakes is based on physics of magneto-plasticity, the remarkable phenomenon,
which implies generation of the electron spin pairs on the trapped
dislocations, in which Coulomb interaction is switched off. Microwave
irradiation at Zeeman frequencies in these pairs stimulates the motion of
dislocations, inducing release of elastic energy into the safe plastic
deformation. Magneto-seismic correlations unambiguously demonstrate that the
earthquakes are indeed suppressed by low-frequency (wide and continuous
spectrum from Hz to MHz) microwaves The detailed mechanism of this phenomenon
is discussed and experimental proofs are given in terms of magneto-plasticity
as a feasible means to control earthquakes.
