  • We investigate the impact of magnetic-field-induced feedback on the dynamics of a Hindmarsh-Rose neuron model exhibiting a blue-sky catastrophe. By introducing a magnetic flux variable that couples nonlinearly to the membrane potential, we demonstrate that electromagnetic effects profoundly reshape neuronal firing patterns and bifurcation structure. Interspike-interval bifurcation analysis reveals a nonmonotonic dependence on the magnetic coupling strength, with weak coupling preserving regular spiking and bursting, intermediate coupling promoting chaotic bursting, and strong coupling yielding structured irregular dynamics. These transitions are quantitatively characterized using the largest Lyapunov exponent computed via the Wolf algorithm and supported by Poincaré sections and time-series analysis. Our results establish electromagnetic feedback as a robust and tunable mechanism for controlling instability and chaos in slow-fast neuronal systems.
