Journal of Neuroscience May 1, 2005 Satu Palva, Klaus Linkenkaer-Hansen, Risto Näätänen et al.

The cortical processing of consciously perceived and unperceived somatosensory stimuli is thought to be identical during the first 100-120 ms after stimulus onset. Thereafter, the electrophysiological correlates of conscious perception have been shown to be reflected in the N1 component of the evoked response as well as in later (>200 ms) nonstimulus-locked gamma-band (28-50 Hz) oscillatory...
