Directing sound to a specific location is difficult because of how sound waves behave. As vibrations move through the air, ...

New audio tech uses ultrasound to create isolated pockets of sound, enabling private listening without headphones.

A new map of cosmic expansion suggests that dark energy evolves over time, hinting that the universe doesn’t work the way we ...

Controlling where sound goes is difficult because of a phenomenon called diffraction – the tendency of sound waves to spread out as they travel. This effect is particularly strong for low-frequency ...

"The sound waves create microscopic bubbles in a diazonium salt solution, which then collapse rapidly, creating tiny bursts of heat and pressure," Associate Professor Darwish said. "This triggers ...

We found that, in synaptically connected layer 2/3 pyramidal cells (L2/3 PCs), the delay in signal propagation from soma to soma is similar in humans and rodents. To compensate for the longer ...
