A new acoustic levitation technique combines sound waves and electric charge to control multiple particles without physical ...

Negative pressure is a rare and challenging-to-detect phenomenon in physics. Using liquid-filled optical fibers and sound waves, researchers have now discovered a new method to measure it. In ...

A wave of sound envelops the room, an ethereal crystal vibration and humming, before a gong interrupts the reverie. Welcome to the world of sound healing – where ‘therapists’ play a range of ...

Determining the "loudest recorded sound" depends on how you define sound and on which measurements you choose to include.

At the start of my career, I used to do acoustic testing in an anechoic chamber where sound is not reflected as it gets absorbed. But the quietness of these chambers always got me thinking of how ...
