Numerous correlations between magnetic and seismic
events unambiguously indicate that the magnetic control of the earthquakes is a
fundamental phenomenon. It proceeds from the remarkable physics of
magneto-plasticity of solids, which implies acceleration of dislocations by
microwaves. The motion of dislocations provides release of dangerous elastic
energy of the earthquake focus and transforms elastic energy into the safe
energy of plastic deformation. Magneto-plasticity seems to be the most
important mechanism of the magnetic control because the piezoelectric effect as
a suggested mechanism of magnetic control should be excluded (Chelidze etal.).
Magnetic control certifies earthquake focus as a receiver of microwaves; on the
other side, numerous observations exhibit emission of microwaves generated by
earthquake focus, so that it can be considered as a permanent generator of
microwaves. The idea of this paper is to offer a mechanism of self-excitation
of the focus: self-triggering is suggested to be induced by microwaves
generated by earthquake focus itself. The more intensive is the crack
formation, the higher is the density of microwaves, which accelerate
dislocations and intensify crack formation: it is a feedback breeding,
avalanche-like process. Both functions of earthquake focus, to be
simultaneously generator and receiver of microwaves, are integrated into the same
space and time. It excludes such limitation of the magnetic control as the penetrability
of the rocks for microwaves.
