gap_junction - Synapse type for gap-junction connections.
gap_junction is a connector to create gap junctions between pairs
of neurons. Gap junctions are bidirectional connections.
In order to create one accurate gap-junction connection between
neurons i and j two NEST connections are required: For each created
connection a second connection with the exact same parameters in
the opposite direction is required. NEST provides the possibility
to create both connections with a single call to Connect via
the make_symmetric flag:
i j << /rule /one_to_one /make_symmetric true >> /gap_junction Connect
The value of the parameter "delay" is ignored for connections of
type gap_junction.
