New Period 5 Oscillators
Earlier, Nicolay Beluchenko pointed out that only 3 of the 6 possible state combinations for the top cell on the line of bilateral symmetry of a "P5 squirter" type oscillator were known, as shown to the right. The sequences are—
(10000)
(10100)
(11000)
(11010)
(11100)
(11110)
(10100)
(11000)
(11010)
(11100)
(11110)
Dean Hickerson has found the three missing sequences. The three new Period 5 Oscillators are shown to the right.
