Gauquelin data

Michel and Françoise Gauquelin were both data collectors. Gauquelin5 program only uses a small subset of the data collected by the Gauquelins, persons with known names (famous persons). Anonymous persons collected by the Gauquelins, like alcoholics, murderers, psychotics, persons gathered for heredity experiments, are not handled by g5.
These data form the departure point of g5 database ; Gauquelin data are imported first, then Müller and skeptics and other complete the database.

Origin of Gauquelin data

Gauquelin data handled by g5 come from two distinct sources :
  • L'influence des astres, a book published by Michel Gauquelin in 1955.
    This book contains the lists of famous persons with birth dates, times and places. Most of the data published in 1955 (but not all) are also published in LERRCP series A.
    See page Gauquelin 1955 for details.
  • Publications du LERRCP. The LERRCP (Laboratoire d'Étude des Relations entre Rythmes Cosmiques et Psychophysiologiques) was the structure used to publish some works of the Gauquelins. Around 30 booklets were published, and 10 contain lists of persons with their names and birth places, dates and times: A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, D6, D10, E1, E3.
    Informations about these booklets can be found on different places:
    • The BNF (Bibliothèque Nationale de France) holds a paper copy of the booklets ; BNF online catalog provides informations:
    • Web site cura.free.fr contains a list of LERRCP booklets.
    • Web site astrolearn.com contains a list of Gauquelin publications, including LERRCP.

    This gives 21 249 persons.

Δ = N Cura - N g5, difference between number of records claimed by Cura and and numbers found by g5.
Most of these differences have no known explanation, either a bug in g5 or a mistake on Cura web site or a mistake from Gauquelin.

Gauquelin unique id

Each person in g5 database has a unique id formed by its "slug", and several local ids, only unique within a source (see page on database).
Applied to Cura data, each person is at least related to 2 sources : one source called "lerrcp" and one source related to its file of origin (ex "A1").
This gives at least 2 local ids for each person :
  • One id referring to its file of origin, using its field NUM of Cura file.
  • One id referring to "lerrcp" source. This one is called the "Gauquelin unique id" (abbreviated GQID).
    It is built concatenating the id of its file of origin and its NUM within this file.
    Ex : for the first record of file A1 (Pierre Alard 1937-09-17), its GQID is A1-1.

For duplicate persons (listed in several Cura files), the file where it was first published is retained to build its Gauquelin unique id - this corresponds to the alphabetical order of file names (A1 was published before A2 etc.).

Example :
Louis Geraud 1902-07-06 is NUM 2054 in file A1 and NUM 1008 in file A2.
Its g5 unique id (slug) is geraud-louis-1902-07-06
Its local ids are :
Source Id
A1 2054
A2 1008
The Gauquelin unique id of this person is A1-2054.

Gauquelin unique id is one of the partial ids defined in g5 database. See complete list of partial ids.

Duplicates

Analysis of the database shows that
  • 212 persons appear twice
  • 4 persons appear 3 times
This explains the difference 21 469 - 21 249 = 220 = 212 + (4 * 2)

Full restoration of names in A files may show more duplicates.

The command
php run-g5.php gauq look dup
generates the following table containing the duplicates.
