Abstract

The paper presents a summary of corrected data on the Soviet Peaceful Nuclear Explosions (abbreviated as PNEs) with the author's corrections, taking into account the information on the updated coordinates of the works of the authors Makei, Fujita, etc. As a result, the article presents the calculated epicentral distances for PNEs, travel-time curves and azimuths from the Geophysical Observatory “Borovoe” to the geographical coordinates of the PNEs, which were registered in digital format during the monitoring conducted by Expedition № 4 of the Special Sector of the Institute of Physics of the Earth of the USSR Academy of Sciences since 1966.
