A quiet revolution is taking shape in the world of physics, and it doesn’t rely on exotic particles or massive particle colliders. Instead, it begins with something much more familiar—sound.
Can you imagine sound travels in the same way as light does? A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely ...
No audio available for this content. Scientists at Japan’s Nagoya University have used Japan’s extensive network of GNSS receivers to create the first 3D images of atmospheric disturbances caused by ...
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers help with precise location tracking and can detect disturbances in the upper atmosphere (ionosphere) by measuring delays and changes in ...
It’s a question I’m sure was keeping you up at night: can you make an object spin with a sound wave? The answer, generally speaking, used to be no. Now, though, mechanical engineers have taken a look ...
Usama Kadri receives funding from the Leverhulme Trust: Research Project Grant number 523930. Many devices have been designed to capture and convert waves’ great power into electricity, but today’s ...
