The authors prove that if \(G\) is a finite-by-nilpotent group whose central kernel \(K(G)\) (the subgroup of all elements fixed by every central automorphism) has finite index, then \(G\) is finite over the center and the elements of finite order form a finite group. If \(G\) is a finite-by-nilpotent group and \(G/K(G)\) is a Chernikov group, then \(G\) itself is a Chernikov group.
