Neuromodulatory silencing of nerve terminals

Posted by klaurent Rockefeller

Kavli Affiliate: Timothy A. Ryan | Authors: Daniel Charles Cook and Timothy Aidan Ryan | Summary: Abstract Control of neurotransmission efficacy is central to theories of how the brain computes and stores information. Neuromodulators are critical in this problem as they locally influence synaptic strength and can operate on a wide range of time scales. […]

Cortico-cortical and hippocampo-cortical co-rippling are facilitated by thalamo-cortical spindles and upstates, but not by thalamic ripples

Posted by klaurent UCSD / Salk

Kavli Affiliate: Eric Halgren | Authors: Charles W Dickey, Ilya A Verzhbinsky, Sophie Kajfez, Burke Q Rosen, Sandipan Pati and Eric Halgren | Summary: Abstract The co-occurrence of brief ~90 Hz oscillations (co-ripples) may be important in integrating information across the cortex and hippocampus, essential for sleep consolidation, and cognition in general. However, how such […]

The Absolute Magnitudes of 1991T-like Supernovae

Posted by klaurent Chicago

Kavli Affiliate: Wendy L. Freedman | First 5 Authors: M. M. Phillips, C. Ashall, Christopher R. Burns, Carlos Contreras, L. Galbany | Summary: 1991T-like supernovae are the luminous, slow-declining extreme of the Branch shallow-silicon (SS) subclass of Type Ia supernovae. They are distinguished by extremely weak Ca II H & K and Si II $lambda6355$ […]
