Former Soviet Union carried out 117 Peaceful Nuclear Explosions during 1965-1988.
Date and Time=origin time of the tests given in Sultanov et al. (1999).
Sultanov, D. D., J.R. Murphy and Kh.D. Rubinstein, A seismic source summary for Soviet peaceful nuclear explosions,
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 89, 640-647, 1999.
Latitude and Lognitude=location the tests given in Sultanov et al. (1999);
m (P)=body-wave magnitude of the tests given in Sultanov et al. (1999);
Yield=the total effective energy released in a nuclear explosion.
It is usually expressed in terms of equivalent tonnage of TNT required to produce the same energy release in an explosion.
kt=a kiloton. The energy of a nuclear explosion that is equivalent the explosive power of 1,000 tons of TNT.
Precision of the origin time is indicated by their decimal points (whole second or one hundredth of a second).
Location accuracies are also indicated by the decimal points.
