What It Is

Van der Pol relaxation oscillations --- slow drift along cubic nullcline punctuated by fast jumps, the canonical model of nonlinear self-sustained oscillation

Interpretation

Standard analysis sees: bounded / light-tailed; smooth / autocorrelated; long-range memory (persistent); strongly periodic; low-complexity (predictable, not noise-like); volatility-clustering (bursty); low-dimensional. The atlas finds no named structure, but the source is distinctively extreme on G2 Root System:short_long_ratio (-3.9z) — beyond what the standard bank predicts for it.
