Synchronization behaviors of coupled neurons under electromagnetic radiation

Based on an improved neuronal model, in which the effect of magnetic flux is considered during the fluctuation and change of ion concentration in cells, the transition of synchronization is investigated by imposing external electromagnetic radiation on the coupled neurons, and networks, respectively. It is found that the synchronization degree depends on the coupling intensity and the intensity of external electromagnetic radiation. Indeed, appropriate intensity of electromagnetic radiation could be effective to realize intermittent synchronization, while stronger intensity of electromagnetic radiation can induce disorder of coupled neurons and network. Neurons show rhythm synchronization in the electrical activities by increasing the coupling intensity under electromagnetic radiation, and spatial patterns can be formed in the network under smaller factor of synchronization.
