Upon varying control parameters (coupling strength, coupling range, refractory period) we investigate the system's behaviour and highlight the formation of chimera states. We show that the introduction of a refractory period enlarges the parameter region where chimera states appear and affects the chimera multiplicity.en004 Datenverarbeitung; Informatikchimera statesynchronisationleaky integrate-and-fireneuron modelsrefractory periodArticle
