Impact of interhemispheric inhibition on bimanual movement control in young and old

Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Takuya Morishita

Interhemispheric interactions demonstrate a crucial role for directing bimanual movement control. In humans, a well-established paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation paradigm enables to assess these interactions by means of interhemispheric inhibi ...

Laser photo-detachment combined with Langmuir probe in magnetized electronegative plasma: how the probe size affects the plasma dynamic?

Ivo Furno, Riccardo Agnello

Laser photo-detachment combined with a Langmuir probe (LP) is used to diagnose negative ion properties in electronegative plasmas. The technique relies on the combined use of a laser pulse and an LP. The laser pulse converts negative ions into electron-ato ...

Comparing performance of discomfort glare metrics in high and low adaptation levels

Marilyne Andersen, Jan Wienold, Geraldine Cai Ting Quek, Mandana Sarey Khanie

Current discomfort glare prediction metrics usually account for at least one of the two categories of effects that induce discomfort glare – the saturation and contrast effects. Saturation-driven metrics (overall illuminance on the eye) are suited for brig ...
