Abstract

In a preceding paper (Bull. Math. Biophysics,27, 175–185) the distribution function ofφ=ɛ 1-ɛ 2,—the difference of excitations in the two mutually inhibiting centers, has been derived in terms of the distribution functionsf 1(ɛ 1) andf 2(ɛ 2) of the two excitations. In the present note some properties of the distribution functionf(ϕ) in terms of the propertiesf 1(ɛ 1) andf 2(ɛ 2) are derived.
