Physicists at New York University in the US have built a new kind of ...

Imagine three people huddled in a circle so when one speaks, only one other hears. Scientists have created a device that works like that, ensuring sound waves ripple in one direction only. The device, ...

Researchers have uncovered a way to control material behavior using sound. In a study ...

A team co-led by UC San Diego and the University of Michigan reports that short pulses of sound could remotely drag a structural defect through a metamaterial lattice, potentially letting researchers ...

A team of researchers co-led by the University of California San Diego, University of Michigan, and the French National ...

Former elementary school teacher Matt Shurtleff — known to many students as “Matt the Mad Scientist” — demonstrated how sound ...

In context: Sound waves typically propagate in forward and backward directions. This natural movement is problematic in some situations where unwanted reflections cause interference or reduced ...

A stellar concert is playing out in the night sky, and scientists are learning how to listen to it like never before. Deep inside stars, sound waves move through hot gas, creating vibrations. These ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne have developed a device that directs sound waves in one direction without wasting energy. This breakthrough sound wave ...
