Abstract:We base our study on the statistical analysis of the Rigan earthquake 2010 December 20, which consists of estimating the earthquake network by means of virtual seismometer technique, and also considering the avalanche-type dynamics on top of this complex network.The virtual seismometer complex network shows power-law degree distribution with the exponent γ = 2.3 ± 0.2. Our findings show that the seismic activity is strongly intermittent, and have a cyclic shape as is seen in the natural situations, which is ma… Show more
