Variability of inter-spike intervals of cat's on-center optic tract fibres activated by steady light spot: a comparative study on X- and Y-fibres.

abstract：:Sinusoidal translation while rotating at constant angular velocity about a vertical axis (translation while rotating, TWR) produces centripetal and translational accelerations along the direction of translation and an orthogonal Coriolis acceleration due to the translation in the rotating frame. Thus, a Coriolis accel...
