Abstract
The onset of dynamic activity is studied in heterogeneous populations of globally coupled units such that each unit is either excitable or oscillatory depending on its parameter. By varying the mean of the parameter distribution as well as coupling strength, we show that all or part of the populations studied have common features: similar phase diagrams, hysteresis near or at the onset of dynamic activity, and a fractional power law obeyed by an order parameter. A simplified model is proposed to explain these results.
