Аннотация:Behavior of the geomagnetic field intensity in the Paleogene from sedimentary
rocks of the Russian Plate was investigated. It is revealed that in the beginning of the Paleogene
alternating of paleointensity variations of little amplitude (about 0.5 H0, where H0 is the value of
modern geomagnetic field taken as 40 µT) and bursts of large amplitude (up to 5 H0) took place. At
the end of the Paleogene paleointensity variations occur only with a little amplitude.
