(Gauck and Jaeger, 2003) say:
"The mean activation rate of excitatory inputs was set to 20 Hz
in accordance with in vivo recordings (Eccles et al., 1972; Cazin et al.,
1980; van Kan et al., 1993; Gamlin and Clarke, 1995; Matsuzaki and
Kyuhou, 1997). No difference between mossy and climbing fiber inputs
has been described in the DCN, and we simulate only one homogenous
group of excitatory inputs."

(Savio and Tempia, 1985): spontaneous firing of single spikes = 36.15/s (± 17.04 SD)
in awake rats. (wistar 180-240 grams, a size I believe corresponds to almost adult size
(Stratton et al., 1988) gives a spontaneous simple spike firing rate of normal awake
rats of 35 ± 5.1 spikes/sec, (with SE), and “average complex spike rate, 1.3 spikes/sec”. The age was P20-28.
(LeDoux and Lorden, 2002) give a mean of ca 41 Hz SS frequency in 19.5±0.8 days old awake rats.
