A recently released data set of Super-Kamiokande data comprises 184 bins of about 10 days each, from 1996 May to 2001 July. The power spectrum of the acquisition times has a huge peak at frequency ν = 35.98 (period 10.15 days), where frequencies are measured in cycles per year, leading to severe aliasing of the power spectrum that complicates the analysis. The strongest peak in the range 0-100 in a power spectrum formed by a likelihood procedure is at ν = 26.57 (period 13.75 days) with S = 11.26. For the range 0-40, the second-strongest peak is at 9.42 (period 38.82 days) with S = 7.3. Since 26.57 + 9.42 = 35.99, we infer that the weaker peak at 9.42 is an alias of the stronger at 26.57. When we subtract the oscillation at 26.57 from the data, the resulting CLEAN spectrum has no peak with power in excess of 6.3 in the range 0-100, and none with power in excess of 5.0 in the range 0-40. We note that 26.57 falls in the band 26.36-27.66, formed from twice the range of synodic rotation frequencies of an equatorial section of the Sun. We find from the shuffle test that the probability of obtaining a peak of S = 11.26 or more by chance in this band is 0.1%. This new result therefore supports previous evidence, found in Homestake and GALLEX-GNO data, for rotational modulation of the solar neutrino flux. The frequency 25.57 yr-1 points to a source of modulation at or near the tachocline.
