  2. Kelvin wake pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin_wake_pattern

    Here ψ is the angle between the path of the wave source and the direction of wave propagation (the wave vector k), and the circles represent wavefronts. Consider one of the phase circles of Fig.12.3 for a particular k, corresponding to the time t in the past, Fig.12.2. Its radius is QS, and the phase chevron side is the tangent PS to it.

  3. The Third Wave (experiment) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Third_Wave_(experiment)

    The 2008 German film Die Welle transferred the experiment to a modern-day German classroom. The film received critical acclaim. "The Pride of Lakewood", a 2010 episode of children's animated series Arthur, was loosely based on the Third Wave experiment. In it, students who form a community pride group become fascistic.

  4. Probability amplitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_amplitude

    A wave function for a single electron on 5d atomic orbital of a hydrogen atom. The solid body shows the places where the electron's probability density is above a certain value (here 0.02 nm −3): this is calculated from the probability amplitude. The hue on the colored surface shows the complex phase of the wave function.

  5. Node (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(physics)

    A node is a point along a standing wave where the wave has minimum amplitude. For instance, in a vibrating guitar string, the ends of the string are nodes. By changing the position of the end node through frets , the guitarist changes the effective length of the vibrating string and thereby the note played.

  6. Phase velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_velocity

    Propagation of a wave packet demonstrating a phase velocity greater than the group velocity. This shows a wave with the group velocity and phase velocity going in different directions. The group velocity is positive, while the phase velocity is negative. [1] The phase velocity of a wave is the rate at which the wave propagates in any medium.

  7. Phase (waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(waves)

    In-phase signals Out-of-phase signals Representation of phase comparison. [3] Left: the real part of a plane wave moving from top to bottom. Right: the same wave after a central section underwent a phase shift, for example, by passing through a glass of different thickness than the other parts.

  8. Geometric phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_phase

    This phase difference is the geometric phase, and its occurrence typically indicates that the system's parameter dependence is singular (its state is undefined) for some combination of parameters. To measure the geometric phase in a wave system, an interference experiment is required.

  9. Matter wave clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_wave_clock

    A matter wave clock is a type of clock whose principle of operation makes use of the apparent wavelike properties of matter. Matter waves were first proposed by Louis de Broglie and are sometimes called de Broglie waves. They form a key aspect of wave–particle duality and experiments have since supported the
