Picosecond acoustic dynamics in stimulated Brillouin scattering [PDF]
Optics Letters, 2021 Recent experiments demonstrating storage of optical pulses in acoustic phonons via stimulated Brillouin scattering raise questions about the spectral and temporal capacities of such protocols and the limitations of the theoretical frameworks routinely used to describe them.

Greater general startle reflex is associated with greater anxiety levels: a correlational study on 111 young women [PDF]
, 2015 Startle eyeblink reflex is a valid non-invasive tool for studying attention, emotion and psychiatric disorders. In the absence of any experimental manipulation, the general (or baseline) startle reflex shows a high inter-individual variability, which is ...

Developmental sensory experience balances cortical excitation and inhibition. [PDF]
, 2010 Early in life, neural circuits are highly susceptible to outside influences. The organization of the primary auditory cortex (A1) in particular is governed by acoustic experience during the critical period, an epoch near the beginning of postnatal ...
