In this paper, studies which have explored the relation between EEG theta waves and psychological phenomena in normal human subjects are reviewed. It is noted that increases in theta activity occur in conjunction with several kinds of psychological processes. The importance of ocnsidering properties of theta activity, such as amplitude, rhythmicity and scalp topography when analyzing the relati...

Intracellular recordings of cells, classified according to the criteria of Colom and Bland as phasic theta-ON or phasic theta-OFF cells, were carried out in the dorsal region of the hippocampal formation in urethan-anesthetized rats. Cells were studied during two spontaneously occurring hippocampal field conditions, asynchrony, termed large-amplitude irregular activity, and synchrony, termed th...

It is well known that, if a rigid sphere is moving at constant speed towards the eye along the line of sight then, for small values of theta, T = theta/theta, where T is the time to contact, theta is the instantaneous angular size and theta is the rate of increase of angular size. We describe a rationale and an experimental procedure for demonstrating empirically when subjects base discriminati...

Neutrino oscillation experiments have measured precisely at few percent levels the mass-squared differences ($\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}{m}_{21}^{2}$, $\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}{m}_{31}^{2}$) of three neutrino mass eigenstates, and leptonic mixing angles (${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{12}$, ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{13}$, ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{23}$) by utilizing both antineutrino oscillations. T...

OBJECTIVE Studies have suggested that non-phase-locked event-related oscillations (ERO) in target stimulus processing might provide biomarkers of alcoholism. This study investigates the discriminatory power of non-phase-locked oscillations in a group of long-term abstinent alcoholics (LTAAs) and non-alcoholic controls (NACs). METHODS EEGs were recorded from 48 LTAAs and 48 age and gender comp...

Theta graphs are important geometric graphs that have many applications, including wireless networking, motion planning, real-time animation, and minimumspanning tree construction. We give closed form expressions for the average degree of theta graphs of a homogeneous Poisson point process over the plane. We then show that essentially the same bounds—with vanishing error terms—hold for theta gr...

The paper proposes a sequential estimator theta of the parameter theta of an exponential distribution when the data are censored. It is shown that theta is asymptotically risk efficient when the loss is measured by the squared error of estimation of theta plus a linear function of the number of observations and that theta is asymptotically normal as the cost per observation goes to zero.

Consistent empirical results showed that both night and day sleep enhanced memory consolidation. In this study we explore processes of consolidation of memory during awake hours. Since theta oscillations have been shown to play a central role in exchange of information, we hypothesized that elevated theta during awake hours will enhance memory consolidation. We used a neurofeedback protocol, to...

Theta frequency field oscillation reflects synchronized synaptic potentials that entrain the discharge of neuronal populations within the approximately 100-200 ms range. The cellular-synaptic generation of theta activity in the hippocampus was investigated by intracellular recordings from the somata and dendrites of CA1 pyramidal cells in urethane-anesthetized rats. The recorded neurons were ve...

A major factor that affects solute and water transport through tissue is the state of tissue hydration. The amount of interstitial water directly affects the transport coefficients for both diffusion and convection. To investigate the effect of simultaneous exposure of tissue to hydrostatic and osmotic pressures on the state of tissue hydration and the pattern of distribution of tissue water, w...
