Since the launch of the SMM satellite on 1980 February 14, the Gamma-Ray Spectrometer has been monitoring the Sun in the energy range 0.3 - 100 MeV. So far 139 flares have been monitored. The authors report on an analysis of the temporal distribution of these high-energy events to provide information on solar activity and find that, instead of being randomly distributed in time, these events have a tendency to occur in groups with a mean spacing of ≡154 days (75 nHz) over the observing interval.
