The continuous-time mathematics of a binary-decision making neuromime are presented. The model, generally describable as a simplification of the Hodgkin-Huxley model, seeks to mimic many properties of biological neurons including spatial and temporal summation of excitatory and inhibitory inputs, action potential evolution controlled by countervailing charge movements, and postinhibitory rebound...
The inert gas ion bombardment of solid surfaces has
found many uses in the field of analytical chemistry. In
one method of spectrochemical analysis, inert gas ion
bombardment in a glow discharge is used to produce an atomic
vapor, representative of the sample bulk, which is analyzed
using atomic absorption...
A laboratory instrument, the Natural Fluorescence Chemostat, was developed to measure the natural fluorescence of phytoplankton cultures. With this instrument, the physical and chemical environment of a culture can be manipulated with respect to temperature, pH, nutrient delivery rate, and light intensity, while the natural fluorescence and a weak stimulated...
