The brief slowdown in processing that occurs immediately after processing another event is referred to as attentional blink. This refers to a phenomenon where a person's ability to detect or identify the second of two consecutive targets presented in a stream of stimuli is impaired. This is due to a temporary inability to attend to new stimuli during the brief recovery period that follows the processing of a previous stimulus.
