An evoked potential or evoked response is an electrical potential in a specific pattern recorded from a specific part of the nervous system, especially...

An action potential occurs when the membrane potential of a specific cell rapidly rises and falls. This depolarization then causes adjacent locations to...

In mathematics, the Newtonian potential or Newton potential is an operator in vector calculus that acts as the inverse to the negative Laplacian, on functions...

Redox potential (also known as oxidation / reduction potential, ORP, pe, E r e d {\displaystyle E_{red}} , or E h {\displaystyle E_{h}} ) is a measure...

A normal mode of a dynamical system is a pattern of motion in which all parts of the system move sinusoidally with the same frequency and with a fixed...

Liénard–Wiechert potentials describe the classical electromagnetic effect of a moving electric point charge in terms of a vector potential and a scalar potential in...

(voltages), and a typical morphology. Any deviation from the normal tracing is potentially pathological and therefore of clinical significance. For ease...

In mathematical physics, scalar potential describes the situation where the difference in the potential energies of an object in two different positions...

electrophysiology, the threshold potential is the critical level to which a membrane potential must be depolarized to initiate an action potential. In neuroscience,...

Synaptic potential refers to the potential difference across the postsynaptic membrane that results from the action of neurotransmitters at a neuronal...

the phenomenon in which, after the action potential of a neuron creates a voltage spike down the axon (normal propagation), another impulse is generated...

pacemaker potential (also called the pacemaker current) is the slow, positive increase in voltage across the cell's membrane (the membrane potential) that...

information about an analyte is obtained by measuring the current as the potential is varied. The analytical data for a voltammetric experiment comes in...

Heaviside-step potential. In the superconductor normal-metal case this gives rise to Andreev reflection. Rectangular potential barrier Finite potential well Infinite...

logit-normal distribution is a probability distribution of a random variable whose logit has a normal distribution. If Y is a random variable with a normal...

the potential energy is a quadratic function of the normal coordinates. Solving the Schrödinger wave equation, the energy states for each normal coordinate...

In economics, a normal good is a type of a good which experiences an increase in demand due to an increase in income, unlike inferior goods, for which...
