Law for the distance between successive earthquakes
Abstract
Discovery of a new law for three dimensional spatial distance between the foci of successive earthquakes is reported. Analyzing the seismic data taken between 1984 and 2001 in southern California, it is found that the cumulative distribution of the distances follows the modified Zipf-Mandelbrot law, showing complexity of geometry of the events.
