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

Negative pressure is a rare and challenging-to-detect phenomenon in physics. Using liquid-filled optical fibers and sound waves, researchers have now discovered a new method to measure it. In ...

When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of ...

A world-famous light experiment from 1801 has now been carried out with sound for the first time. Research by physicists in Leiden has produced new insights that could be applied in 5G devices and the ...

A team of scientists has succeeded in cooling traveling sound waves in wave-guides considerably further than has previously been possible using laser light. This achievement represents a significant ...

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - The universe is full of waves, and they are not all created equally. Some are mechanical, and others are electromagnetic, even though they are all energy! Not all waves are created ...

Usama Kadri receives funding from the Leverhulme Trust: Research Project Grant number 523930. Many devices have been designed to capture and convert waves’ great power into electricity, but today’s ...

Scientists at Japan’s Nagoya University have used Japan’s extensive network of GNSS receivers to create the first 3D images of atmospheric disturbances caused by the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake.
