Popis: Earlier, the shape of histograms of the results of measurements obtained in processes of different physical nature had been shown to be determined by cosmophysical factors [1]. Appearance of histograms of a similar shape is repeated periodically: these are the near- a-day, near-27-days and annual periods of increased probability of the similar shapes. There are two distinctly distinguished near-a-day periods: the sidereal-day (1,436 min- utes) and solar-day (1,440 minutes) ones. The annual periods are represented by three sub-periods: the “calendar” (365 average solar days), “tropical” (365 days 5 hours and 48 minutes) and “sidereal” (365 days 6 hours and 9 minutes) ones. The tropical year period indicates that fact that histogram shape depends on the time elapsed since the spring equinox [2]. The latter dependence is studied in more details in this work. We demonstrate that the appearance of similar histograms is highly probable at the same time count o from the moments of equinoxes, independent from the geographic lo- cation where the measurements had been performed: in Pushchino, Moscow Region (54 NL, 37 EL), and in Novolazarevskaya, Antarctic (70 SL, 11 EL). The sequence of the changed histogram shapes observed at the spring equinoxes was found to be op- posite to that observed at the autumnal equinoxes. As the moments of equinoxes are defined by the cross of the celestial equator by Sun, we also studied that weather is not the same as observed at the moments when the celestial equator was crossed by other celestial bodies — the Moon, Venus, Mars and Mercury. Let us, for simplicity, refer to these moments as a similar term “planetary equinoxes”. The regularities observed at these “planetary equinoxes” had been found to be the same as in the case of true solar equinoxes. In this article, we confine ourselves to considering the phenomenological observations only; their theoretical interpretation is supposed to be subject of further studies.
