  2. Slow-wave sleep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_sleep

    Slow-wave sleep (SWS), often referred to as deep sleep, is the third stage of non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREM), where electroencephalography activity is characterised by slow delta waves. [ 2 ] Slow-wave sleep usually lasts between 70 and 90 minutes, taking place during the first hours of the night. [ 3 ]

    Gamma waves are seen when a person is highly focused on a task or using all their concentration. Theta waves occur during the period of a person being awake, and they continue to transition into Stage 1 of sleep and in stage 2. Delta waves are seen in stages 3 and 4 of sleep when a person is in their deepest of sleep. [19]

  4. Sharp waves and ripples - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_waves_and_ripples

    Sharp waves and ripples (SPW-R), also called sharp wave ripples (SWR), are oscillatory patterns produced by extremely synchronized activity of neurons in the mammalian hippocampus and neighboring regions which occur spontaneously in idle waking states or during NREM sleep. [2]

    [10]: §9.1–2 263–282 (PGO waves have long been measured directly in cats but not in humans because of constraints on experimentation; however, comparable effects have been observed in humans during "phasic" events which occur during REM sleep, and the existence of similar PGO waves is thus inferred.) [15] These waves occur in clusters ...

  6. Brainwave entrainment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwave_entrainment

    Brainwave entrainment, also referred to as brainwave synchronization or neural entrainment, refers to the observation that brainwaves (large-scale electrical oscillations in the brain) will naturally synchronize to the rhythm of periodic external stimuli, such as flickering lights, [1] speech, [2] music, [3] or tactile stimuli.

  7. Unihemispheric slow-wave sleep - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unihemispheric_slow-wave_sleep

    Polysomnogram demonstrating slow-wave sleep. High amplitude EEG is highlighted in red. Slow-wave sleep (SWS), also known as Stage 3, is characterized by a lack of movement and difficulty of arousal. Slow-wave sleep occurring in both hemispheres is referred to as bihemispheric slow-wave sleep (BSWS) and is common among most animals.

  8. Beta wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_wave

    Beta waves, or beta rhythm, are neural oscillations (brainwaves) in the brain with a frequency range of between 12.5 and 30 Hz (12.5 to 30 cycles per second). Several different rhythms coexist, with some being inhibitory and others excitory in function.

  9. Delta Sleep - Wikipedia

    On June 9th, 2021, Delta Sleep released the single 'The Detail' and announced their third album, Spring Island which was planned for release on September 10th, 2021. [10] On August 15th, 2021, Delta Sleep announced that Spring Island was delayed to November 12th, 2021 due to delayed vinyl manufacturing caused by Brexit and COVID-19. On May 7th ...
