Performance of Experimental Clock EM1

2 D Delay map for the data from Bryan Mumford's EM1 clock.
Reference Chapter 5 of Chaos Under Control by D. Peak & M. Frame:
"In Brownian motion, position at one instant is almost the same as position at the next instant. The entries in a time series with Brownian motion change only gradually. A delay plot of Brownian noise consists of points whose horizontal and vertical coordinates are nearly identical - that is, of points closely clustered along the Xn+1 = Xn diagonal."
