In this work, we study the multistability and chaos phenomena in a classical two-mode van der Pol generator which consists of a nonlinear element and two linear oscillators. We show that the configuration of the connections of the linear oscillators in the two-mode self-oscillating system significantly affects its oscillation regimes and bifurcational transitions. In the case of the feedback loop including one oscillator, the two-mode system demonstrates the well-known effect of frequency entrainment, including bistability and hysteresis phenomena. If the feedback loop involves both linear oscillators, the entrainment effect disappears; however, two new complex regimes of quasi-periodicity and chaotic self-oscillations emerge. We present here the results of the bifurcation analysis of the multistability formation and transition to chaos.

Ecosystem services provided by terrestrial biomes, such as moisture recycling and carbon assimilation, are crucial components of the water, energy, and biogeochemical cycles. These biophysical processes are influenced by climate variability driven by distant ocean-atmosphere interactions, commonly referred to as teleconnections. This study aims to identify which teleconnections most significantly affect key biophysical processes in South America's two largest biomes: The Amazon and Cerrado.

Background: Poor sleep is associated with cognitive decline, and ∼45% of Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients experience sleep disturbances. Emerging evidence suggests that reduced non-rapid eye movement (NREM) slow wave sleep (SWS) is linked to amyloid accumulation and APOE ε4-related genetic vulnerability to AD. Here, we investigate the effects of amyloid and APOE status on SWS, and their interaction, in a cohort of cognitively unimpaired (CU) individuals at higher risk of AD.

Purpose: Pain is a multidimensional, unpleasant emotional and sensory experience, and accurately assessing its intensity is crucial for effective management. However, individuals with cognitive impairments or language deficits may struggle to accurately report their pain. EEG provides insight into the neurological aspects of pain, while facial EMG captures the sensory and peripheral muscle responses.

Sleep spindles are cortical electrical oscillations considered critical for memory consolidation and sleep stability. The timing and pattern of sleep spindles are likely to be important in driving synaptic plasticity during sleep as well as preventing disruption of sleep by sensory and internal stimuli. However, the relative importance of factors such as sleep depth, cortical up/down-state, and temporal clustering in governing sleep spindle dynamics remains poorly understood.
