  2. Schumann resonances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonances

    The global electromagnetic resonance phenomenon is named after physicist Winfried Otto Schumann who predicted it mathematically in 1952. Schumann resonances are the principal background in the part of the electromagnetic spectrum [2] from 3 Hz through 60 Hz [3] and appear as distinct peaks at extremely low frequencies around 7.83 Hz (fundamental), 14.3, 20.8, 27.3, and 33.8 Hz.

  3. Extremely low frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremely_low_frequency

    The fundamental Schumann resonance is at approximately 7.83 Hz, the frequency at which the wavelength equals the circumference of the Earth, and higher harmonics occur at 14.1, 20.3, 26.4, and 32.4 Hz, etc. Lightning strikes excite these resonances, causing the Earth–ionosphere cavity to "ring" like a bell, resulting in a peak in the noise ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winfried_Otto_Schumann

    Winfried Otto Schumann (May 20, 1888 – September 22, 1974) was a German physicist and electrical engineer who predicted the Schumann resonances, a series of low-frequency resonances caused by lightning discharges in the atmosphere.

  5. Waveguide (radio frequency) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveguide_(radio_frequency)

    In radio-frequency engineering and communications engineering, a waveguide is a hollow metal pipe used to carry radio waves. [1] This type of waveguide is used as a transmission line mostly at microwave frequencies, for such purposes as connecting microwave transmitters and receivers to their antennas, in equipment such as microwave ovens, radar sets, satellite communications, and microwave ...

    Thus, the lifetime of a particle is the direct inverse of the particle's resonance width. For example, the charged pion has the second-longest lifetime of any meson, at 2.6033 × 10 −8 s. [2] Therefore, its resonance width is very small, about 2.528 × 10 −8 eV or about 6.11 MHz. Pions are generally not considered as "resonances".

  7. Mikheyev–Smirnov–Wolfenstein effect - Wikipedia

    The resonance condition is given by = ⁡ , which is when the neutrino system experiences resonance and the mixing becomes maximal. For very small θ , {\displaystyle \ \theta \ ,} this condition becomes ℓ ν ≈ ℓ 0 , {\displaystyle \ \ell _{\nu }\approx \ell _{0}\ ,} that is, the eigenfrequency for a system of mixed neutrinos becomes ...

  9. Magnetic resonance (quantum mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance...

    The Rabi frequency should not be confused with the field's own frequency. Since many atomic nuclei species can behave as a magnetic dipole, this resonance technique is the basis of nuclear magnetic resonance, including nuclear magnetic resonance imaging and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
