Are Gamma Rays Increasing?

No.
I work in a gamma-ray spectroscopy lab, and I measure gamma-rays all day. I can tell you that at least on the surface of the planet, I have not noticed any significant changes in the background gamma-rays, cosmic or terrestrial, in the past three years. I use extremely sensitive equipment and even a small change in background gammas would change my data significantly so I feel confident in making this statement.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23524705 well, if you ever get bored sometime, tell us about Cobalt-60 gamma-rays, and gamma-ray beams from "Gamma-ray Bursters" :) I agree, Cobalt-60 gamma-rays, and gamma-ray beams from "Gamma-ray Bursters" information is desirable. I recall Dr. Deagle a few years back mentioned some relation with Cobalt Mineral #27 (I think) being removed from the Earth is showing some effect on Gamma-ray emissions from the Sun. Are there any known Earthen-Materials, Minerals, or the like that have a Cause and Effect relation with the Sun in general? I measure Co-60 gammas @ 1173.2 KeV and 1332.5 KeV, via HPGe semiconductor type detectors, and have never seen a burst of noise or excess radiation in these energy levels. Sorry but I'm not going to give out my name or information like that here, for what its worth, I work in a university nuclear physics lab in the north east.
