#16a.     Discovery of the Sunspot Cycle

Excerpts from Solar Observations During 1843 by Heinrich Schwabe, (Astronomische Nachrichten, vol. 20., no. 495, 1843)

The weather throughout this year was so extremely favorable that I have been able to observe the Sun clearly on 312 days; however, I counted only 34 groups of sunspots....

From my earlier observations, which I have reported every year in this journal, it appears that there is a certain periodicity in the appearance of sunspots and this theory seems more and more probable from the results of this year. ...I should like now to add a complete report of all my observations of sunspots up to the present, in which I have indicated the number of days of observation and the days when there were no spots to be seen, as well as the number of groups.
