Evidence for a 160 minute oscillation affecting Galaxies and the Solar System

Now we’ll head into some more controversial territory, and explore a phenomenon which the mainstream has averted its eyes from. Many celestial objects have parameters which correspond to a fundamental frequency of 160.0101 minutes. Why 160.0101? Because that’s the figure determined by Valery Kotov, who devoted a substantial portion of his career to investigating an oscillation of that period he found on the Sun. What causes it? Nobody knows yet, but the empirical evidence is overwhelming that this is a non-local phenomenon despite a 1989 paper which is used as a rebuttal of Kotov’s work on the basis that 160 minutes is exactly 1/9 of an Earth day. The last mention I find of Kotov banging the 160.01 minute drum is at a conference in 2003, at, of all places, Stanford University, home of one Leif Svalgaard, where the U.S. Team was based which confirmed Kotov’s discovery in 1977. Let’s take a brief tour of just a few examples of the existence of the 160 minute wave before we move on to examine this frequency in relation to the solar system.

From http://lempel.pagesperso-orange.fr/entree_uk.htm

In 1974, a periodic infrasonic oscillations, measured by doppler effect, on the surface of the sun (2km, speed 1m/s) , in 160,01 minutes, is discovered by two independent groups:

1. Severny, Kotov, Tsapp (Astrophysical observatory of Crimea –  KrAO) [1]

2. Brookes et al. [2] (University of Birmingham) [2]

A little later it is confirmed by two other teams. [3-6]

1. KrAO 1974 – 1982, with a period of oscillation of 160.0101 ± 0.0016 minutes [7]

2. Stanford 1977 – 1980 P0 With a period of oscillation of 160.0095 ± 0.0010 minutes. [6]

Variation of the Luminosity of the Sun and some other stars :

The satellite SOHO probably showed the presence of a period of 160-min and\or 80-min in the luminosity of the sun. [11 – 12]
The most commensurable period of the pulsations of Delta Scuti Stars is : 162 ± 4 min (3.8σ/proba .= 0.02 %). [13]
For the variable RR Lyrae Stars, we find 161,4 ±1,6 min

It would thus seem, that at least in our galaxy, this wave is a rather general phenomenon for stars of various types.

In 1990, after the discovery of the Wave of Kotov in the Sun and in a certain number of stars of the Milky way, is published, in the “Comptes Rendus de l’Académie des Sciences” in Paris, a document showing the appearance, in about twenty nucleuses of active Galaxies and Quasars, of a wave of 160,01 minutes, therefore similar, except the amplitude, to the one that already had been detected in the Sun.

1. NGC 1275, NGC 3516, NGC 4051, NGC 4151, NGC 5506, NGC 5548, NGC 6814, NGC 7314, NGC 7469

2. 3C 66A, 3C 273, 3C 371, 3C 454.3, 4C 29.45

3. III Zw 2, Mrk 335, Mrk 421, Mrk 501, OJ 287, MCG-6-30-15

4. EXO 1128+691, PKS 2155-304.

As well as for the stars, no Doppler effect (Redshift) is measurable and the phase is constant on more of thirty years of data collected so much in USSR that to USA.
One notes that:

1. The effect is measurable on all the Earth (south pole, USA, Crimea,)

2. The phase is different from one quasar to another. The cause of the wave of Kotov is therefore external to the solar system.

3. The galaxies and the Quasars are dispersed in the full celestial sphere. Would the cause be extra galactic?

Our old friend Ray Tomes from the Cycles Research Institute who gave me the link to M. Lempel’s site is many years ahead of us (as usual 🙂 ) on this 160 minute stuff :

And on that page he includes the abstract of a 1987 Paper by Kotov & Koutchmy and  and a dead link:

V. A. Kotov and S. Koutchmy

“The discovery of global pulsations on the Sun with period Po = 160 min enables us to consider a characteristic wavelength for the solar system L = cPo = 19.24 a.u., where c is the velocity of light. The planetary distances show a statistically significant quasicommensurability between L and 2.p.ai for the inner planets or between 2.p.ai and L for the outer ones (ai is the major semiaxis of the orbit). This L commensurability leads to a new approach to the Titius-Bode planetary distance law. The physical mechanism responsible for this L commensurability in the solar system is evidently related to gravitational waves from an external source of unknown nature.”

Ray has dug out a copy of this paper off an old hard drive for me and I’ll publish it as a separate post next.

So why does the mainstream write off this empirical evidence? Judging by the wiki page, they want to avoid having their inboxes inundated by New Agers, Creationists, Astrologers and other assorted ne’er do wells, who of course, we will be lumped in with by the labellers. 🙂

Leif tells us that the modern helioseismology instruments don’t find this 160.01 minute period and so Kotov is dismissed. However, it seems that the probes in question weren’t looking for it, and found instead the strongest signal at around 24 minutes. It turns out that this period relates to 160 minutes in an intriguing way, but I’ll leave that for a further post too. One other interesting detail is that Kotov found that the signal modulated to a side-lobe frequency ~159 minutes every 400 days, which just happens to be the Earth – Jupiter synodic cycle.
