Mathematicians and engineers at the University of Utah have teamed up to show how ultrasound waves can organize carbon particles in water into a sort of pattern that never repeats. The results, they ...

Every time NASA releases a new audio clip tied to a black hole or a distant nebula, millions of listeners share it as proof ...

Yushun Zeng squishes cancer cells in a petri dish at work. No, not with his ungainly, macroscopic human fingers. Zeng, an engineering graduate student at the University of Southern California, has ...

The top layer represents the location of the sound source and the path of sound propagation (A). The bottom layers represent convergence zones with different sound propagation paths (B-F). Sound 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 waves ...

Researchers have pioneered the use of parallel computing on graphics cards to simulate acoustic turbulence. This type of simulation, which previously required a supercomputer, can now be performed on ...
