Heterogeneity and Delayed Activation as Hallmarks of Self-Organization and Criticality in Excitable Tissue

Heterogeneity and Delayed Activation as Hallmarks of Self-Organization and Criticality in Excitable Tissue

Self-organized critical dynamics is assumed to be an attractive mode of functioning for several real-life systems and entails an emergent activity in which the extent of observables follows a power-law distribution. The hallmarks of criticality have recently been observed in a plethora of biological...
