Abstract

The system of integrated equations was simplified for the stationary conditions of ion movement velocity. Several values of the synapse diameters have been chosen for the calculation. For each synapse diameter several values of exciting and inhibiting potentials have been taken. Graphic dependences of a change of the monosynaptic potential with respect to the length of the membrane are constructed. Calculation results enable one to coordinate on a sound basis the known experimental electrophysiological data of values of monosynaptic potentials with structural parameters of the membrane and synapses.
