Let $K/Q$ be a finite Galois extension with Galois group $G$. Let $U\subset K^\times$ be the group of units. I am interested in any available information about $H^1(G,U)$.

Motivation: in the theory of fusion categories one is interested in "d-numbers": an algebraic number $\alpha$ is a d-number if for any Galois conjugate $\beta$ of $\alpha$ the ratio $\frac{\alpha}{\beta}$ is a unit. Let us look at d-numbers contained in the number field $K$. It is clear that d-numbers form a group under multiplication; this group contains two obvious subgroups: units and rational numbers. An exact sequence $1\to U\to K^\times\to K^\times/U \to 1$ and Hilbert theorem 90 show that the quotient of d-numbers in $K$ by the units and rational numbers is precisely $H^1(G,U)$.

In the theory of fusion categories one is mainly concerned with the case when $K/Q$ is abelian and totally real. Using the properties of Herbrand quotient one shows that if $K/Q$ is cyclic (and real) of degree $n$ then the order of $H^1(G,U)$ is $n$ if $K$ contains a unit of norm $-1$ (this is always the case if $n$ is odd) and $2n$ otherwise. I suspect that group $H^1(G,U)$ is cyclic or direct sum of two cyclics in these cases but I don't see how to prove this. I don't know how to extend this computation to more general extensions (say, to biquadratic).

Finally, the computation of norm of a d-number gives a map from $H^1(G,U)$ to positive rationals modulo $|G|-$th powers. What can be said about image of this map? This seems to be nontrivial even for quadratic fields not containing a unit of negative norm.
