Scientific paper

Over 100 X-ray sources have been detected with the RXTE All-Sky Monitor (ASM) in its three years of operation. We will present the results of a systematic search through the ASM data for evidence of periodic behavior. The search was conducted by means of the Lomb-Scargle periodogram which was applied to the light curves of the three ASM energy bands and its sum, as well as two hardness ratios. We will present the results of the search via a table, and also show folded light curves and hardness ratios for selected sources. New discoveries will be emphasized, including the results for XTE J1716-389 and X 1908+075.
