The sequence of neurophysiological processes elicited in the auditory system by a sound is
analyzed in search of the stage at which the processes carrying sensory information cross …

Magnetoencephalography (MEG), with its direct view to the cortex through the magnetically
transparent skull, has developed from its conception in physics laboratories to a powerful …

We present a method of optical magnetometry with parts-per-billion resolution that is able to
detect biomagnetic signals generated from the human brain and heart in Earth's ambient …

Event-related brain potentials (ERPs) were recorded from participants listening to or reading
sentences that were correct, contained a violation of the required syntactic category, or …

Auditory evoked responses to a violin tone and a noise-burst stimulus were recorded from 4-
to 6-year-old children in four repeated measurements over a 1-year period using …

In our high-speed culture, terms like" stressed-out,"" Type-A personality,"" biofeedback," and"
relaxation response" have become commonplaces. More than ever before, we are aware of …

Whole-head magnetoencephalographic (MEG) responses to repeating standard tones and
to infrequent slightly higher deviant tones and complex novel sounds were recorded …

Previous studies have proven that a dipole source analysis of the auditory evoked field is
capable of providing evidence of the tonotopic organization of the human auditory cortex. To …

Infrequent “deviant” auditory stimuli embedded in a homogeneous sequence of “standard”
sounds evoke a neuromagnetic mismatch field (MMF), which is assumed to reflect automatic …

Timbre and pitch are two independent perceptual qualities of sounds closely related to the
spectral envelope and to the fundamental frequency of periodic temporal envelope …
