Environmental magnetic fields may activate the neuroendocrine stressor system leading to some human diseases. The stressor theory predicts that the fields can trigger changes in brain electrical activity, like known stressors. We exposed subjects to 1 and 5 μT, 60 Hz while recording electroencephalograms (EEGs) from six derivations, and used a novel method based on numerical analysis of recurre...

o,ne more example of how advances in one field of science may lead to advances in other, distantly related fields is the recent use of superconducting instruments in the study of the visual system. At the heart of these instruments is the superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), which is exquisitely sensitive to weak magnetic fields. These devices do not depend upon Faraday inductio...

The problem of unbounded uniaxial chiral omega media in the presence of both static electric and magnetic point charges is investigated. For this purpose scalar electric and magnetic potentials in these media are introduced. Using these potentials, the corresponding electric and magnetic fields are determined. The similar problem of static electric and magnetic current sources with the goal of ...

introduction: biological effects of magnetic fields have been investigated by scientists for many years and a vast amount of research using different frequencies and intensities have been performed on humans and laboratory animals. the results of these studies, which have mostly been done by applying high frequencies, have shown that electromagnetic fields are effective on structure and functio...

We show that it is feasible to monitor the synchronized population spikes of the thalamocortical axonal terminals and cortical neurons outside the brain using high-resolution magnetoencephalography (MEG). Electrical stimulation of the snout elicited somatic-evoked magnetic fields (SEFs) above the primary somatosensory cortex (SI) of the piglet. The SEFs contained high-frequency oscillations (HF...

20 The dichotic presentation of two sinusoids with a slight difference in frequency elicits subjective fluctuations called binaural beat (BB). BBs provide a classic example of binaural interaction, considered to result from neural interaction in the central auditory pathway that receives input from both ears. To explore the cortical representation of the fluctuation of BB, 25 we recorded magnet...
