Coactivity

[homunculusplus]

In many theoretical models the following construction is used: 2 cells, A and B, are synapsing onto a third cell C. The third cell is supposed to detect co-activity of A and B, i.e. C is supposed to fire when A and B are "co-active". I am wondering, where to find papers with experimental data about this simple setup. Is there any physiological data regarding the following:

1) how far apart (time-wise) the activities of A and B can be, so that cell C detects "co-firing"? Especially in the hippocampus?
2) if A and B are co-active within the required time interval, what is the probability "p" for the cell C to detect that co-acticity, i.e. to fire in response?

I'd very much appreciate any info, any references.

It's difficult to calculate the time period of A and B's activity for each cell. It will different and changeable as per the cell. So it is quite difficult to made the formula for the probability of each cell. Why dont you ask some more information to any good professor?

Have you discussed this with any of the professors you know?
