Sound is not just something we hear—it’s vibration, and vibration interacts directly with the human body at a cellular level.

A research team at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) has discovered a new type of sound wave: the airborne sound wave vibrates transversely and carries both rotation and orbital angular momentum ...

For the first time, researchers were able to transmit, or "tunnel," sound waves across extremely small distances between two crystals in a vacuum. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...

Insights into how mixing layers scatter sound waves could further understanding of acoustic sources in open-jet wind tunnel ...

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 ...

This morning, scientists from the Laser Interferometer Gravity Observatory announced that LIGO had detected gravitational waves from the collision of two black holes, an event so cataclysmic that it ...

The area of sound is fascinating researchers and after a recent study of bendable sound waves that could result in localised reception, they have now delved into how sound can be used in weight loss.
