Of these, we detected magnetic readings on 21 exercises. The mafnetic signals were of three types: 1, direct current signals, amplitude of 2 to 6 X¥ 107 nanoctesla (nT. 2, alternating current signals with amplitudes of 2 to 2.6 X 1067 nT. 3, pulsating signals with an amplitude of 3 to 1.3 X 105 nT. After completing the QIGONG exercises, there remained a detectable magnetic signal 81 percent of the time, indicating that after completing the QIGONG exercise, there continued to remain a “Field” effect. Repetition experiments on 17 occasions with eight people indicated that it was repeatable on 11 occasions with five people (65 percent of the time}. Looking at the direct current magnetic field, when releasing external QI, the direct current magnetic field detected was three to six orders of magnitude greater than that of an ordinary person. Just what the mechanism is that causes this drastic increase in human body magnetic signals deserves deep reflection and further research. There have been a small number of articles in China reporting research into the mapnetic signals of QIGONG external QI. Some persons have detected a low frequency magnetic signal of the strength of 1.25 and 1.67 gauss at the location where two QIGONG masters directed their energies. They have also discovered that the amplitude of the mafnetic signals and the maximum rate of variation was related to the state of health of the QIGONG master. For the same QIGONG master in a good state of health, the maxinum magnetic signal has a strength of 1.67 gauss, and the maximum rate of variation was 65.7 fsauss per second. Gn the other hand, when the state of health was not so good, the maximum strength was only 0.25 gauss, and the maximum rate of variation was one gauss per second. Also, there have been people who have measured at the hands and mouth of a QIGONG master magnetic fields which are from 2 X 104 to i X i05 times the strength of that of ordinary peoplei:-2. Another person measured a magnetic field of the strength of four gauss at the palms of a QIGONG 1 Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300040002-9

In some related reports in the past, not only were there fewer examples of this detection, but the testing was done in ordinary laboratories without magnetism screening rooms to eliminate effects of earth magnetism and outside magnetism interference, and which lacked observation and description of the dynamic process. Our experiment was conducted in China’s only zero gravity space laboratory, and we conducted dynamic observation of the entire QIGONG process. The zero magnetism space laboratory was composed of 26 pieces of multiple layered alloy (see cover illustration two. Translator’s note: unavailable). The space is around eight cubic meters. The zero magnetism space laboratory capability indexes are: 1. Residual magnetic field: The screening effect on the earth’s magnetic field is a reduction from 5 X 104nT (inT - 10-®T) to less than 20 oT. 2. Alternating current screening coefficient: 0.01 to 2Hz low frequency signals can be reduced to a level 160 to 1400 times lower. 3. Residual magnetism stability: The residual magnetic Field at any point in the space will shift less than 0.3nT within a 24 hour period. Therefore, we can believe that this has made it possible for us to observe in detail, under laboratory conditions, dynamic changes in the weak magnetic signals under conditions of basically avoiding interference by the earth’s magnetic field and various electromagnetic interference. SUBJECTS AND METHODS OF THE EXPERIMENT The 26 subjects of the experiment were divided into two groups. One Broup was the normal group (had never practiced QIGONG) which consisted of six persons with an average age of 46.7 years. The other group was the QIGONG group (practiced QIGONG for from one to 30 years} which consisted of 20 persons with an average sage of 45.3 years. Experiment procedure: Before the subject to be tested entered the zero magnetism space laboratory, he removed all magnetic objects he carried (such as watch, keys, belt buckle, jewelry, and false teeth). After he was checked, he put on slippers and prepared to enter the zero mafnetism laboratory. Before the subject to be tested entered the laboratory, the low level mMafnetic signals of the closed zero magnetism space laboratory was recorded, and then the subject to be tested entered the laboratory, and hateh Chereafter called door} to the laboratory was closed.

During GIGONG, all of the subjects pointed the palm of their hand at the probe until a maximum reading was obtained. At the end of the @QIGONG, the subject being tested would stand at the probe for three minutes and then return to the stand at door for three minutes and then open the door. After the subject being tested left the laboratory, the door was closed once more, and the low level reading of the laboratory was recorded. During the process of the experiment, the dynamic changes of the magnetic signals during the entire process of before, during, after and after leaving the lab were all recorded by the recorder. For recording of the magnetic signals we used the CHO-1 model millioersted meter for the readings. The milliocersted meter frequency response is direct current up to ten hertz. It can measure from inT to imT per centimeter and is adjustable. The zero shift is InT per hour. He used a YEW-3065 model three channel signal recorder to record the results. This has a sensitivity of 1V per centimeter, and » paper speed of two or six centimeters per minute. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 1. MAGNETIC SIGNAL WHEN NORMAL PERSONS SIMULATED QIGONG The six ordinary people simulated sending out QIGONG from the palus of their hands, and in all the experimental sequences, there was never a magnetic signal greater than i1nT (nanotesla, unit of mapfnetic flux density} detected (see illustration two}.

This is where the signal intensity was 11 to 105nT. This occurred 13 times, or 40.7 percent of the time. Z. Low magnetic signal group. This is where the signal intensity was two to 10nT. This occurred on eight occasions, or 25 percent of the tine. 3. No magnetic signal group. This occurred on 11 occasions, or 34.3 percent of the time. Based on the category of magnetic signal of the QIGONG released by the subject, we can divide them into the categories of direct current, alternating current and pulses. The direct current signal amplitude was two to 6 X 10°nT, and continued for 0.5 to 14 minutes (from the time when the subject began releasing QI until he stopped). The alternating current signal amplitude was 2 to 2.6 X 103nT, and the frequency was 0.16 to 0.5 cycles per second. The pulse signal amplitude was 3 X 1.3 X 105nT, and the frequency was from one to two cycles per second (see table one). 1 SUSE Sw aE RUA) QE (nT) 3 38H (nT) 44 fit (nT) S xXx) 4~2.5x 103 20~2. 6 103 10?~104 6X 4~30 2~5 20~2% 103 7 #8 X X 4~ 36 25 1.2103 $i x x 4~ 20 {~13 13~60 § xX x 3~4 3~4 P~15 lost x X 5~6 2~8 HEX X 2 at x X 9 ii IS 5KX X 4 /fBEX X| EX 10?~6X 108} 18~1.2 103 | 32~1.3« 105 /$AXX 5 Mik xX 2 18.5 IPEXX{, a~9 .

CHARACTERISTICS OF MAGNETIC SIGNAL DURING RELEASE OF QL: During the process of the release of QI, magnetic signals were detected 21 times. Of these, on five occasions there were all three types of signals, on six occasions there were two types of signals, and on ten occasions one type of signal occurred. The alternating current signals generally were less than 10nT, and individuals could attain as much as 2.6 X 104nT. The direct current signals were between two and 2Z0nT, and some persons could achieve 6 K 105nT. The pulse signal had a very wide range of intensity, and the absolute values were also large. <A small number of people had signals of less than 100 nT, but the Majority were over 103nT. Of these, some were of the magnitude of 104 to 105 nT (see table two and illustrations four a, b and ec). Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300040002-9

As for the question of the intensity of magnetic fields during the release of external QI, there are reports that under conditions of a magnetism screened room, when a QIGONG master releases QI, low frequency magnetic signals of from 0.25 to four gauss have been detected, approximately equal to 2.5 X 104 to 4 X 105nT, with fluctuations of only a Single order of magnitude12. In the zero magnetism space laboratory, magnetic signals of two to 105nT were measured, with fluctuations of as much as 105 times. Analysis of the difference in the measured signal intensity yields two causes. 1, our laboratory conditions were a zero magnetism space laboratory, and environmental noise was low, relatively small signals conld not be covered by magnetic noise. 2, The instruments used had different sensitivity. According to the articles, the instruments they used were a magnetism detection apparatus composed of a mapnetically sensitive diodes and a voltage amplifier with a magnetic induction sensitivity of 12mV/gauss, which is i2mV/105nT=. However, our CHO-1 model millioersted meter had a sensitivity of 10mV/nT, about 105 times more sensitive then their instrument. Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300040002-9
7 Approved For Release 2000/08/10 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000300040002-9 LN465-92 During the release of QIGONG, we detected a magnetic signal 21 out of 32 times, or two thirds of the time. One-third of the time, no magnetic Signal was detected. One reason for this may be that the subject being tested was sending out a signal of a different nature (such as an electromagnetic wave ina different frequency range), infrared rays, or acoustical waves). 2. CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MAGNETIC SIGNALS PRIOR TO RELEASE OF QIGONG When the subject entered the zero magnetism space laboratory, when the door was closed and he was standing at the doorway or in front of the probe before he began to release QIGONG, most of the times no magnetic Signal appeared (standing at the doorway, there was no magnetic signal 86 percent of the time, and standing in front of the probe there was no signal 76 percent of the time) (see table three). However, there were three of these 21 occasions (or 14 percent’ of the time) when there was a magnetic signal when the subject was standing at the doorway. On one of these occasions, there appeared a direct current magnetic signal of 4nT, on one occasion there was a 2nT signal alternating current magnetic signal, on another occasion there was an alternating current magnetic signal of 3nT and a pulse magnetic signal of 1i3nT. While standing in front of the probe, on five occasions (or 24 percent of the time) there Was a magnetic signal. On three of these occasions there was a four to 20nT direct current magnetic signal, on one occasion there was a 18nT alternating current magnetic signal. On three occasions there was a 30 to 4 X 102nT pulse magnetic signal (se illustrations five a and b}). ) 5 { 3 els) 8 { f i QZ Re = BS 5 (a) ‘ (b) TLLUSTRATIONS 5a,b: MAGNETIC SIGNAL CHART PRIOR TO RELEASING QIGONG 1.
