Abstract
Data in 5-day bins, recently released by the Super-Kamiodande Consortium, has been analyzed by a likelihood procedure that has certain advantages over the Lomb-Scargle procedure used by the consortium. The two most prominent peaks in the power spectrum of the 10-day data were at 9.42 and 26.57 (frequencies in cycles per year), and it was clear that one was an alias of the other caused by the regularity of the binning. There were reasons to believe that the 9.42 peak was an alias of the 26.57 peak, but analysis of the 5-day data makes it clear that the reverse is the case. In addition to a strong peak near 9.42, we find peaks at 43.72 and at 39.28. After comparing this analysis with a power-spectrum analysis of magnetic-field data, we suggest that these three peaks may be attributed to a harmonic of the solar rotation rate and to an r-mode oscillation with spherical harmonic indices l = 2, m = 2.
