    Ultra-weak spontaneous photon emission in visible range from palms and hands of dark- 

accommodated subjects has been measured every two hours in 5 experiments in the course of 24 hours 

by means of low-noise photomultiplier. Measured data have been analyzed for mean photon emission 

of different anatomical locations in individual experiments and maximal fluctuations taking place in 

experiments. Dorsal sides of the hands show higher fluctuations of photon emission intensity than 

palmar sides. Cycles of fluctuations of the 1 day and 3-4 hours long period have been observed from 

Fourier analysis of the measured data.
