These are found mainly in adults who are awake, have their eyes shut, and are deeply relaxed. They facilitate inspiration, fast assimilation of facts, and heightened memory. Less than half and epoch (about 30 seconds) of continuous alpha rhythm indicates sleep onset.
brain waves with a frequency of 8-13 cycles per second that are produced when a person is relaxed but awake.
EEG waves between eight and 12 or 13 cycles per second (Hertz); accompany a relaxed waking state, generally when the eyes are closed.
A regular 10 Hz pattern of waves seen in electroencephalogram of relaxed individuals with their eyes closed.
Fairly regular EEG waves, between eight to twelve per second, characteristic of a relaxed, waking state, usually with eyes closed.
Are seen in the state of relaxed wakefulness, i.e., daydreaming. Alpha waves are stronger when the eyes are closed shutting out the visual stimulation, but effort and actively concentrating to create them actually blocks them. Alpha waves are below the level of awareness known as subliminal.
EEG (brain) wave activity that occurs during quiet wakefulness, such as when the eyes are closed. The frequency of alpha waves is between 8 to 12 hertz (cycles per second). It is indicative of the wakeful state in humans.
Alpha waves are a pattern of smooth, regular electrical oscillations in the frequency range of 8-12 Hz that occurs during quiet wakefulness, such as when the eyes are closed. Alpha waves are commonly detected by electroencephalography (EEG) or magnetoencephalography (MEG)
The borderline brain activity between conscious and subconscious; the creative cycle; 8-13 cycles per second.
Alpha Waves (also known as Continuum) is an early 3D game that combines labyrinthine exploration with platform gameplay. By most definitions of the genre it could be considered to be the first 3D platform game, released in 1990, 6 years before the genre's seminal classic Mario 64. It was an abstract game with a moody, artistic presentation, curiously named for its supposed ability to stimulate the different emotional centers of the brain with its use of color and music.
