On the basis of the spatial summation properties of their receptive fields, cat retinal ganglion cells were classified as either X-cells (linear) or Y-cells (non-linear). Responses were then obtained to a small, centered spot, square-wave modulated in time and superimposed on various levels of diffu
The stimulus response characteristics (SRCs) of 33 phasic retinal ganglion cells were established on the basis of extracellular recordings in the optic tract of anaesthetized and paralyzed cats. All SRCs were best described with two straight lines in double logarithmic coordinates. The near threshol
