Sin saber, supooooooongo que esas oscilaciones son tan cortas que podés meter un número entero de ellas en un segundo de los de antes casi perfectamente.
Osea siempre que metas un numero entero de ALGO en OTRA COSA, le vas a errar por uno, de menos o de mas. Si ese UNO de ALGO es la millonesima parte de OTRA COSA, te chupa un huevo.
EDIT ahi está
"After three years of comparisons with lunar observations, Markowitz et al. (1958) determined that the ephemeris second corresponded to 9,192,631,770 ± 20 cycles of the chosen cesium resonance.
Following this, in 1967/68, the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) replaced the definition of the SI second by the following:
The second is the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom.
Although this is an independent definition that does not refer to the older basis of ephemeris time, it uses the same quantity as the value of the ephemeris second measured by the cesium clock in 1958. This SI second referred to atomic time was later verified by Markowitz (1988) to be in agreement, within 1 part in 1010, with the second of ephemeris time as determined from lunar observations.[18]"
