The physical basis of alpha waves in the electroencephalogram and the origin of the ?Berger effect?
2005
Biological cybernetics
Synchronised activity, differing in phase in different populations of neurons, plays an important role in existing theories on the function of brain oscillations (e.g., temporal correlation hypothesis). A prerequisite for this synchronisation is that stimuli are capable of affecting (resetting) the phase of brain oscillations. Such a change in the phase of brain waves is also assumed to underlie the "Berger effect": when observers open their eyes, the amplitude of EEG oscillations in the alpha
