Interaural delay-line conduction velocities differ by input side

Evidence

In general, changes in delay with depth were consistent with the NM axons acting as delay lines (Carr and Konishi 1990 ), and with modelled conduction velocities in McColgan et al. ( 2014 ). Ipsilateral recordings showed an increase in latency with recording depth in NL (open symbols in Fig. 2 ), while contralateral recordings (closed symbols) showed a decrease in latency with depth, consistent with the delay line geometry. The regression lines in Fig. 2c predicted velocities of +2.5 and -8.3 m/s, consistent with modelling results (McColgan et al. 2014 ) and measurements from previous studies (Carr and Konishi 1990 ). — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 2857
