Motor responses of Halobacterium halobrium to sinusodial light stimuli

Sinusoidal light stimuli have been used to elicit photoresponses in Halobacterium halobium at various periods of the stimulus. Cycle histograms and histograms of the times between consecutive reversals are used to illustrate the responses, and the method used to obtain sinusoidally modulated intense light (with periods up to 1 s) is described.
