Experiments described in Communications Biology revealed more than 100 genes whose activity changed in response to these acoustic waves, pointing to possible medical applications. Extensive earlier ...

In a study published in Science Advances, researchers from Technical University of Denmark and Universidad Politécnica de Madrid demonstrate a new device called an acoustic rainbow emitter (ARE) that ...

Sound waves can be measured in phase and amplitude without destroying them. In a sense, the cat stays both alive and dead, and researchers can listen in without opening the box.

Mesoscale eddies can affect how sound waves propagate in the ocean, depending on their size, speed, current direction and location. Understanding these effects are critical for accurate underwater ...

All the latest science news on wave propagation from Phys.org. Find the latest news, advancements ... Macroscopic C₅₄₀ model offers new way to study sound wave propagation in topological ...

From ETH Zurich: “Schematics of the experimental set-up (left) and wave propagation (right): Waveguide 1 can be heard perfectly by waveguide 3, but not by waveguide 2, and waveguide 3 can be ...

There are times when it would be useful to make sound non-reciprocal, perhaps when noise suppression is required. In 2014, researchers at the University of Texas at Austin developed an acoustic ...

Sound and other waves usually propagate equally forward and backward. Researchers have now developed a method that prevents sound waves from traveling backward without deteriorating their propagation ...

The short time scale (minutes) and azimuthal dependence of sound wave propagation in shallow water regions due to internal waves is examined. Results from the shallow water acoustics in random media ...
