A differentially amplified motion in the ear for near-threshold sound detection
The mammalian cochlea can detect near-threshold sound signals by mechanically amplifying sub-nanometer vibrations of the basilar membrane. This study describes vibration enhancement in the hearing organ opposi...

Spontaneous Basilar-Membrane Oscillation (SBMO) and Coherent Reflection
In a previous report (in JARO) we have described a relatively high-frequency (15 kHz) spontaneous oscillation of the basilar membrane (SBMO) in a guinea pig ear; this oscillation was accompanied by a spontaneo...
