Burst firing in sensory systems

R Krahe, F Gabbiani - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2004 - nature.com
Neurons that fire high-frequency bursts of spikes are found in various sensory systems.
Although the functional implications of burst firing might differ from system to system, bursts are …

Braid statistics in local quantum theory

J Fröhlich, F Gabbiani - Reviews in Mathematical Physics, 1990 - World Scientific
… The canonical trace f on M is then a scalar trace, so that we may define … we conclude that
the matrices (Ri’( j, p, q, k)f,,) generate a unitary representation of the groupoid B,f of coloured …

Collision detection as a model for sensory-motor integration

H Fotowat, F Gabbiani - Annual review of neuroscience, 2011 - annualreviews.org
Visually guided collision avoidance is critical for the survival of many animals. The execution
of successful collision-avoidance behaviors requires accurate processing of approaching …

A complete analysis of FCNC and CP constraints in general SUSY extensions of the standard model

F Gabbiani, E Gabrielli, A Masiero, L Silvestrini - Nuclear Physics B, 1996 - Elsevier
We analyze the full set of constraints on gluino- and photino-mediated SUSY contributions to
FCNC and CP violating phenomena. We use the mass insertion method, hence providing a …

Multiplicative computation in a visual neuron sensitive to looming

F Gabbiani, HG Krapp, C Koch, G Laurent - Nature, 2002 - nature.com
Multiplicative operations are important in sensory processing 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , but their
biophysical implementation remains largely unknown 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 . We investigated an …

FCNC in generalized supersymmetric theories

F Gabbiani, A Masiero - Nuclear Physics B, 1989 - Elsevier
We study the constraints imposed by flabour changing neutral current phenomena on
supersymmetrizations of the standard model where a non-flat Kähler metric and/or new superfields …

approach such as that modeled by f(t) [compare f(t) (Fig. 1C) to DCMD response (Fig.2A)]. …

Computation of object approach by a wide-field, motion-sensitive neuron

F Gabbiani, HG Krapp, G Laurent - Journal of Neuroscience, 1999 - Soc Neuroscience
… We therefore looked for a class of functions f of these variables that could describe the time
course of LGMD and DCMD firing rate over the range of values of l/‖v‖ used in the present …
