Descripción
Analysis of data obtained over the years 1980-1985 are analyzed to show that the period of the 160-minute signal is indeed 160.00 minutes. It is demonstrated that this signal may be simulated by a slightly distorted diurnal sine wave such as that occasioned by differential atmospheric extinction.
