Fascinated by the rhythmic movement of the lamp, Galileo began to count its oscillations.

受油灯有节奏的运动吸引，伽利略开始细数油灯摆动的次数。

They are exhibiting these slow oscillations, slow waves whereas the limbic system which controls emotions is awake.

理性区域表现出这种慢波睡眠状态，慢波，而控制情绪的边缘系统是清醒的。

As for whether modern-day humans need to worry about this 405,000-year oscillation?

“那现代人类是否需要担心这种以40.5万年为周期的振荡？”

That's much faster than any other biological oscillation, and we would like to understand where it comes from.

这比任何别的生物振动都快，我们也想弄明白它是怎么来的。

And that, is to look for periodic oscillations in the data.

这种办法就要靠寻找数据中的脉冲了。

Problem is, it's been hard to verify that this oscillation between orbit shapes exists.

问题是，我们很难证实轨道形状存在这种变动。

In this case., flavors are basically different states of oscillation, but these states are not stable.

在此例中，味是振荡不同的基本状态，但是这些状态是不稳定的。

The oscillation part is because it seesaws between warm and cold states about every two to seven years.

这种涛动发生是因为大约每两到七年之间冷热交替循环发生。

I thought I needed to dampen the oscillations.

‎我都以为我要做的是减少振荡。

The element needed to have long-lived and high frequency electron oscillation for precise, long-term timekeeping.

该元件需要具有长寿命和高频电子振荡，以实现精确、长期的计时。
