Warm inflation with an oscillatory inflaton in the non-minimal kinetic coupling model
In the cold inflation scenario, the slow roll inflation and reheating via coherent rapid oscillation, are usually considered as two distinct eras. When the slow roll ends, a rapid oscillation phase begins and the inflaton decays to relativistic particles

Oscillation-specific nodal alterations in early to middle stages Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
Background Different oscillations of brain networks could carry different dimensions of brain integration. We aimed to investigate oscillation-specific nodal alterations in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) across early stage to middle stage by ...

The Overnight Retention of Novel Metaphors Associates With Slow Oscillation–Spindle Coupling but Not With Respiratory Phase at Encoding [PDF]
Accumulating evidence emphasizes the relevance of oscillatory synchrony in memory consolidation during sleep. Sleep spindles promote memory retention, especially when occurring in the depolarized upstate of slow oscillation (SO).

Precise Slow Oscillation-Spindle Coupling Promotes Memory Consolidation in Younger and Older Adults. [PDF]
Memory consolidation during sleep relies on the precisely timed interaction of rhythmic neural events. Here, we investigate differences in slow oscillations (SO; 0.5–1 Hz), sleep spindles (SP), and their coupling across the adult human lifespan and ask ...

Sleep slow oscillation and inhibition [PDF]
When we fall asleep, fast electrical brain activities are progressively replaced by slower rhythms. The major sleep rhythm is the slow oscillation, the cortically generated brain rhythm with a frequency around 1 Hz.

Cortex-wide BOLD fMRI activity reflects locally-recorded slow oscillation-associated calcium waves. [PDF]
Spontaneous slow oscillation-associated slow wave activity represents an internally generated state which is characterized by alternations of network quiescence and stereotypical episodes of neuronal activity - slow wave events.

Sleep slow oscillation and plasticity.
It is well documented that sleep contributes to memory consolidation and it is also accepted that long-term synaptic plasticity plays a critical role in memory formation. The mechanisms of this sleep-dependent memory formation are unclear.

The impact of cortical deafferentation on the neocortical slow oscillation. [PDF]
Slow oscillation is the main brain rhythm observed during deep sleep in mammals. Although several studies have demonstrated its neocortical origin, the extent of the thalamic contribution is still a matter of discussion.
