The idea of guidance toward a target is central to axon pathfinding and brain wiring in general. In this work, we show how several thousand axonal growth cones self-pattern without target-dependent guidance during neural superposition wiring in . Ablation of all target lamina neurons or loss of target adhesion prevents the stabilization but not the development of the pattern.

The signal would be an excess of events with energies above 4 MeV over the well-understood background. Because no excess of events are observed in a 97.

Because of deflection by interstellar magnetic fields, cosmic rays produced within the Milky Way arrive at Earth from random directions. However, cosmic rays interact with matter near their sources and during propagation, which produces high-energy neutrinos.
