I agree that the lack of evidence in the article is disappointing.. but doing a little digging on the internet, I came across his actual study/Thesis.
Here's the PDF:

On the last 2 or 3 pages of the article there are a couple graphs that show the correlation between the "Area of human aura" (Y-axis) Vs. the "Time Elapsed After Death" .... if those are real graphs, they are a little compelling

I'm not sure I'm getting the significance of the results - the effect tapers off with time after death, but wouldn't that be expected anyway without positing a departing metaphysical energy as the cause? The body has ceased to produce the sweat and other factors that influence the kirlian effect.

The original paper can be found here: http://www.korotkov.co/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/GDV-After-Death_e.pdf

The photos are similar to this: http://www.spiritscienceandmetaphysics.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/gdv-energy-field.jpg but are not included with the paper. If anyone cared to get in touch with Mr Korotkov he might make them available although I don't imagine he is interested in publicity acquired via new age media or be prepared to be involved in any debate. He is a scientist following the scientific method and the data acquired was published in this paper.
