Entrainment range affected by the difference in sensitivity to light-information between two groups of SCN neurons |
The effect of the sensitivity q on the lower limit entrainment (LLE) with G = 0.05. The parameter L is 0.05, 0.1, and 0.15 in panels (a)–(c), respectively. The relationship of the LLE to q is parabolic-like for each case of p in panels (a)–(c). In panel (d), the relationship of the trough qc to p is shown. Note that larger LLE corresponds to smaller entrainment range. The dashed line indicates the line of qc = 1 in panel (d). |
