The content discusses the fundamentals of acoustics, focusing on sound refraction, the anatomy of the ear, and how sound ...

New research suggests that sound waves can influence cellular activity, including stopping the development of fat.

In a nutshell Sound waves can influence how cells behave, even affecting fat development. In lab experiments, exposing cells to common sound frequencies like a 440 Hz tone significantly altered ...

The study found that sound waves stopped adipocyte differentiation, the process where precursor cells turn into mature fat cells that store fat.

Researchers at ETH Zurich have managed to make sound waves travel only in one direction. In the future, this method could also be used in technical applications with electromagnetic waves.

In the context of sensory modalities, eyes work like tiny antennae, picking up light, electromagnetic waves traveling at blistering speeds. When humans look at the world, their eyes catch these ...

Generating electricity with green hydrogen fuels—predicted to become an important energy source in future—produces practically zero greenhouse gas emissions.

For the first time, researchers were able to transmit, or "tunnel," sound waves across extremely small distances between two crystals in a vacuum.

Photonic computation with sound waves Date: April 16, 2024 Source: Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light Summary: Optical neural networks may provide the high-speed and large-capacity ...

Researchers have created a new sound wave director that can target specific ports and mute sound everywhere else.

Researchers at ETH Zurich have managed to make sound waves travel only in one direction. In the future, this method could also be used in technical applications with electromagnetic waves.

Researchers in Switzerland have found a way of using sound waves to manipulate objects in disordered environments such as liquids. Instead of trapping the objects as conventional optical and acoustic ...
