The corresponding half width is 364.4 kW.
For low-angle GBs, an apparent transition of PFZ half width is observed at a misorientation of 11°.
This time span is directly proportional to the EPSC width at half amplitude, which is almost entirely determined by the decay time constant as demonstrated by the fact that STP vs. decay time and STP vs. half width are almost identical functions (Figure 2C, D).
AP half width was measured at half-maximal amplitude.
Mean amplitudes of mIPSCs amounted to 84 + 16 pA, mean rise times were 1.4 + 0.2 ms and mean widths of events at the level of half of the amplitude (half width) was 13.8 + 1.7 ms (n = 6; Figure 5A).
The half width was defined as the full-width at half maximum of PCr, respectively, P i. SNR was defined as the ratio between the PCr- and P i -peak amplitude and the peak-to-peak spectral noise, in the range of +10 to +20 ppm.
The half widths were measured as the time between maximal and minimal peaks for each response half cycle.
Instrumental error was estimated using the etalon, and corrections for the reflex half-width were calculated.
The equatorward and poleward half-widths were estimated from the latitudinal differences between the trough minimum and the respective average TEC locations (T E and T P).
Action potentials (APs) generated during this period of spontaneous activity were then averaged and the AP threshold, peak amplitude, rise slope, decay slope, afterhyperpolarization (AHP) amplitude (AP threshold to trough of the AHP), and the duration of the AP at half of the maximal height of the AP (AP half-width) were measured.
L4 cells were deemed to contain slow component only if both fast and slow tau exceeded 15 ms. The 10 90% rise time and EPSP half-width were calculated using scripts written in Signal 4. Daily whisker trims were performed on the right facepad starting within 24 h of birth.
