  1. Thermodynamic and Statistical-Mechanical Measures for Synchronization of Bursting Neurons W. Lim (DNUE) and S.-Y. KIM (LABASIS)  Burstings with the Slow and Fast Time Scales Bursting: Neuronal activity alternates, on a slow timescale, between a silent phase and an active (bursting) phase of fast repetitive spikings Representative examples of bursting neurons: chattering neurons in the cortex, thalamocortical relay neurons, thalamic reticular neurons, hippocampal pyramidal neurons, Purkinje cells in the cerebellum, pancreatic -cells, and respiratory neurons in pre-Botzinger complex 1

  2. Burst and Spike Synchronizations of Bursting Neurons  Synchronization of Bursting Neurons Two Different Synchronization Patterns Due to the Slow and Fast Time Scales of Bursting Activity  Burst Synchronization Synchrony on the Slow Bursting Timescale Temporal coherence between the active phase (bursting) onset or offset times of bursting neurons  (Intraburst) Spike Synchronization Synchrony on the Fast Spiking Timescale Temporal coherence between intraburst spikes fired by bursting neurons in their respective active phases 2
