  • Each row corresponds to an experimental session, with animal, cell, and session numbers listed under Cell ID and Session. All numeric values are in degrees. The preferred movement directions of theta cells are listed under θDBFT, and the preferred firing directions of simultaneously recorded head direction cells are listed under θHD (× denotes session during which no head direction cell was recorded). Rotations of the DBFT curve, head direction cell tuning curve, and cue card (in comparison with the session from the row above) are listed under ΔθDBFT, ΔθHD, and ΔθCUE, respectively. DBFT, head direction, and internal rotation errors are listed under ϵDBFT, ϵHD, and ϵINT, respectively, where ϵDBFT = ΔθDBFT − ΔθCUE, ϵHD = ΔθHD − ΔθCUE, and ϵINT = ϵHD − ϵDBFT.
