  2. Acoustic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance

    The resonance properties of a cylinder may be understood by considering the behavior of a sound wave in air. Sound travels as a longitudinal compression wave, causing air molecules to move back and forth along the direction of travel. Within a tube, a standing wave is formed, whose wavelength depends on the length of the tube.

    add some glue (e.g. a layer of glue is often added on the top of television coils ; over the years, this glue degrades and the sound level increases) change the shape of the coil (e.g. change coil shape to a figure eight rather than a traditional coil shape) isolate the coil from the rest of the device to minimize structure-borne noise

  4. Acoustic resonance spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance...

    Acoustic resonance spectroscopy (ARS) is a method of spectroscopy in the acoustic region, primarily the sonic and ultrasonic regions. ARS is typically much more rapid than HPLC and NIR . It is non destructive and requires no sample preparation as the sampling waveguide can simply be pushed into a sample powder/liquid or in contact with a solid ...

  5. Acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustics

    This falls within the domain of physical acoustics. In fluids, sound propagates primarily as a pressure wave. In solids, mechanical waves can take many forms including longitudinal waves, transverse waves and surface waves. Acoustics looks first at the pressure levels and frequencies in the sound wave and how the wave interacts with the ...

  6. Mikheyev–Smirnov–Wolfenstein effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikheyev–Smirnov...

    In the presence of matter, the Hamiltonian of the system changes with respect to the potential: = +, where is the Hamiltonian in vacuum. Correspondingly, the mass eigenstates and eigenvalues of H {\displaystyle H} change, which means that the neutrinos in matter now have a different effective mass than they did in vacuum: ν 1 , ν 2 → ν 1 m ...

  7. Acoustic paramagnetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Acoustic_paramagnetic_resonance

    In acoustics, acoustic paramagnetic resonance (APR) is a phenomenon of resonant absorption of sound by a system of magnetic particles placed in an external magnetic field.It occurs when the energy of the sound wave quantum becomes equal to the splitting of the energy levels of the particles, the splitting being induced by the magnetic field.

  8. Acoustic wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_wave

    An acoustic wave is a mechanical wave that transmits energy through the movements of atoms and molecules. Acoustic waves transmit through fluids in a longitudinal manner (movement of particles are parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave); in contrast to electromagnetic waves that transmit in transverse manner (movement of particles at a right angle to the direction of propagation ...

  9. Beat (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beat_(acoustics)

    In acoustics, a beat is an interference pattern between two sounds of slightly different frequencies, perceived as a periodic variation in volume whose rate is the difference of the two frequencies. With tuning instruments that can produce sustained tones, beats can be readily recognized.
