Abstract
For better insight into lunar radio emissions, observations of the Moon were made during the maximal Geminids meteor shower and during the lunar eclipse without external effects. Statistical processing of the obtained data was carried out. It was found that the lunar endogenous and exogenous processes are displayed in both the seismic-emission fields and lunar nonthermal electromagnetic emissions. Both types of signals demonstrate good correlation. The seismic and electromagnetic emission processes have common periodicities, some of which determine the internal structure of the Moon. Similar regularities are expected for other bodies of the Solar System.
