The existence of specific biorhythms and
the role of geomagnetic and/or solar magnetic activities are well-established
by appropriate correlations in chronobiology. From a physical viewpoint, there
are two different accesses to biorhythms to set up connections to molecular
processes: quantum mechanical perturbation theoretical methods and their
resonance dominators to characterize specific interactions between
constituents. These methods permit the treatment of molecular processes by
circuits with characteristic resonances and “beat-frequencies”, which
result from primarily fast physical processes. As examples, the tunneling
processes between DNA base pairs (H bonds), the ATP decomposition and the irradiation of tumor cells are accounted
for.
