Abstract
Multiple spike trains were recorded in the auditory thalamus of cats. Each unit was studied before, during and after cooling of the ipsilateral primary auditory cortex, during spontaneous activity and acoustically evoked activity. The search for spatiotemporal firing patterns provided evidence that excess of patterns does exist and that the acoustical stimulation increased their number. Cortical cooling did not affect the probability of finding the firing pattern.
