Insights into how mixing layers scatter sound waves could further understanding of acoustic sources in open-jet wind tunnel ...

A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely and carries both rotation and orbital angular momentum ...

Sound is usually treated as the most familiar of physical phenomena, the background noise of daily life rather than a ...

Researchers have succeeded in detecting the rolling movement of a nano-acoustic wave predicted by the famous physicist and Nobel prize-winner Lord Rayleigh in 1885. A team of German and American ...

Data centres and digital information processors are reaching their capacity limits and producing heat. Foundational work here on optical-acoustic microchips opens door to low-heat, low-energy, fast ...

Helium is a noble gas, and its colorless, odorless, and non-reactive properties make it extremely difficult to detect. A Chinese research team has developed a detector using sound waves that can ident ...

Call to your mind an image of your doctor. Go ahead. I'll wait. Got it? I'm willing to bet that, whether your doctor is young or old, man or woman, you imagined a person wearing a white lab coat and a ...
