Extinction Dynamics of Cardiac Fibrillation
David Vidmar, Wouter-Jan Rappel
During episodes of atrial fibrillation, the heart's electrical activity becomes disorganized and shows fragmenting spiral waves. To systematically address how this pattern terminat…

Dynamics of conduction blocks in a model of paced cardiac tissue
Herve Henry, Wouter-Jan Rappel
We study numerically the dynamics of conduction blocks using a detailed electrophysiological model. We find that this dynamics depends critically on the size of the paced region. S…

The role of M cells and the long QT syndrome in cardiac arrhythmias: simulation studies of reentrant excitations using a detailed electrophysiological model
Hervé Henry, Wouter-Jan Rappel
In this numerical study, we investigate the role of intrinsic heterogeneities of cardiac tissue due to M cells in the generation and maintenance of reentrant excitations using the…
