Biohybrid Superorganisms—On the Design of a Robotic System for Thermal Interactions With Honeybee Colonies

Francesco Mondada, Robert Matthew Mills, Rafael Botner Barmak, Raphael Cherfan

Social insects, such as ants, termites, and honeybees, have evolved sophisticated societies where collaboration and division of labor enhance survival of the whole colony, and are thus considered “superorganisms”. Historically, studying behaviors involving ...

Pre-stimulus alpha activity modulates long-lasting unconscious feature integration

Michael Herzog, David Pascucci, Maëlan Quentin Menétrey

Pre-stimulus alpha (α) activity can influence perception of shortly presented, low-contrast stimuli. The underlying mechanisms are often thought to affect perception exactly at the time of presentation. In addition, it is suggested that α cycles determine ...

How long does stimulus processing last?

Michael Herzog, Leila Drissi Daoudi - Kleinbauer

How a stimulus is processed is at the very heart of all vision research. However, there is only little research about how long the processing of a stimulus lasts. One reason is that visual processing is often explicitly or implicitly thought to be feedforw ...

Lattice-mediated magnetic order melting in TbMnO3

Fabrizio Carbone, Edoardo Baldini

Recent ultrafast magnetic-sensitive measurements [Johnson et al., Phys. Rev. B 92, 184429 (2015); Bothschafter et al., Phys. Rev. B 96, 184414 (2017)] have revealed a delayed melting of the long-range cycloid spin order in TbMnO 3 following photoexcitation ...

2D to 3D dynamic fragmentation with parallel cohesive elements

Jean-François Molinari, Nicolas Richart, Marco Vocialta

Dynamic fragmentation is a fast and catastrophic failure that takes place when an extreme load is applied to a material. During this process complex crack patterns develop. Cracks initiate at internal micro-defects, they propagate, eventually branch, and f ...

Determination of Lightning Currents from Far Electromagnetic Fields: Effect of a Strike Object

Mario Paolone, Marcos Rubinstein, Davide Pavanello, José-Luis Bermudez

We discuss in this paper the influence of the presence of an elevated strike object on the peak of the lightning return stroke current determined from remote field measurements. We develop analytical expressions relating the lightning return stroke channel ...

Collective Decision-Making by a Group of Cockroach-like Robots

Masoud Asadpour, Gilles Caprari

In group-living animals, aggregation favours interactions as well as information exchanges between individuals, and allows thus the emergence of complex collective behaviors. In previous works, a model of a self-enhanced aggregation was deduced from experi ...

Out-of-body experience and autoscopy of neurological origin

Olaf Blanke

During an out-of-body experience (OBE), the experient seems to be awake and to see his body and the world from a location outside the physical body. A closely related experience is autoscopy (AS), which is characterized by the experience of seeing one's bo ...
