Resumen

The aim of the present article is to propose possible intersections between contemporary physics and neurosciences, in matters related to space-time. Such scope is of great significance both in “normal” and pathologic situations. In the latter, states like hypermnesia (enhanced capacity to evoke memories, with distortion of information stored in neural circuits) are described, which can be thought of – in a parallel with physics – as space-time scenarios with more than one time-type direction. Dimensions of such category – called Ataiyah-Ward space-time – have been considered in connection with systems of interest in the study of fundamental interactions, and, in macroscopic scale, in association with the issue of gravitational collapse. One has sought to understand physical phenomena in the presence of extra time to then use these studies to propose an attempt to modelling hypermnesia, through the concept that, in certain situations, neuronal system behaves as if immerse in a scenario with two time-type directions.
