In seismology, an aftershock is a smaller earthquake that follows a larger earthquake, in the same area of the main shock, caused as the displaced crust adjusts to the effects of the main shock. Large earthquakes can have hundreds to thousands of instrumentally detectable aftershocks, which steadily decrease in magnitude and frequency according ...
Aftershocks in the 3-4.8 magnitude range can be expected on average, according to the USGS, but some aftershock sequences are more energetic than others. What we know about NY, ...
It is a common understanding in psychoacoustics that the ear cannot respond to sounds at such high frequency via an air-conduction pathway, so one question that this research raised was: does the hypersonic effect occur via the "ordinary" route of sound travelling through the air passage in the ear, or in some other way?
After large earthquakes, there is an expectation that aftershocks could occur in the hours and days that follow, but aftershocks from some of the strongest earthquakes in recorded United States ...
The crests overtake the troughs until the leading edge of the wave forms a vertical face and spills over to form a turbulent shock (a breaker) that dissipates the wave's energy as sound and heat. Similar phenomena affect strong sound waves in gas or plasma, due to the dependence of the sound speed on temperature and pressure. Strong waves heat ...
A 4.0 magnitude aftershock hit 37 miles west New York City in New Jersey around 6 p.m. Friday. According to the United States Geological Survey it was felt as far away as Long Island, where there ...

The AfterShocks are Dayton-bound and now two wins away from the $1 million grand prize after completing a second straight summer undefeated at Koch Arena.
