  2. Reverberation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverberation

    In comparison to a distinct echo, that is detectable at a minimum of 50 to 100 ms after the previous sound, reverberation is the occurrence of reflections that arrive in a sequence of less than approximately 50 ms. As time passes, the amplitude of the reflections gradually reduces to non-noticeable levels.

  3. Room acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_acoustics

    Room acoustics is a subfield of acoustics dealing with the behaviour of sound in enclosed or partially-enclosed spaces. The architectural details of a room influences the behaviour of sound waves within it, with the effects varying by frequency.

  4. Ramsey interferometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramsey_interferometry

    A simplified version of the Rabi method consists of a beam of atoms, all having the same speed and the same direction, sent through one interaction zone of length .The atoms are two-level atoms with a transition energy of (this is defined by applying a field ‖ in an excitation direction ^, and thus = | ‖ |, the Larmor frequency), and with an interaction time of = / in the interaction zone.

  5. Reflection coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_coefficient

    In telecommunications and transmission line theory, the reflection coefficient is the ratio of the complex amplitude of the reflected wave to that of the incident wave. The voltage and current at any point along a transmission line can always be resolved into forward and reflected traveling waves given a specified reference impedance Z 0.

  6. Dynamic range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range

    Audio engineers use dynamic range to describe the ratio of the amplitude of the loudest possible undistorted signal to the noise floor, say of a microphone or loudspeaker. [18] Dynamic range is therefore the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for the case where the signal is the loudest possible for the system. For example, if the ceiling of a device ...

  7. Sound power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_power

    Sound power or acoustic power is the rate at which sound energy is emitted, reflected, transmitted or received, per unit time. [1] It is defined [2] as "through a surface, the product of the sound pressure, and the component of the particle velocity, at a point on the surface in the direction normal to the surface, integrated over that surface."

  8. Spatial frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_frequency

    Each of the spin-echo signal is a sinc function of time, which can be described by = ⁡ Where = + ¯ Here ¯ is the gyromagnetic ratio constant, and is the basic resonance frequency of the spin. Due to the presence of the gradient G , the spatial information r is encoded onto the frequency ω {\displaystyle \omega } .

  9. Phonon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonon

    A type of quasiparticle in physics, [1] a phonon is an excited state in the quantum mechanical quantization of the modes of vibrations for elastic structures of interacting particles. Phonons can be thought of as quantized sound waves, similar to photons as quantized light waves. [2] The study of phonons is an important part of condensed matter ...
