  2. Kundt's tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kundt's_tube

    The sound generator is turned on and the piston is adjusted until the sound from the tube suddenly gets much louder. This indicates that the tube is at resonance. This means the length of the round-trip path of the sound waves, from one end of the tube to the other and back again, is a multiple of the wavelength λ of the sound waves. Therefore ...

  3. End correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_correction

    The analysis above applies only to an ideal tube, of zero diameter. When designing an organ or Boomwhacker, the diameter of the tube must be taken into account. In acoustics, end correction is a short distance applied or added to the actual length of a resonance pipe, in order to calculate the precise resonant frequency of the pipe. The pitch ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonant_inelastic_X-ray...

    RIXS is bulk sensitive: the penetration depth of resonant X-ray photons depends on the material and on the scattering geometry, but typically is of the order of a few micrometers in the hard X-rays regime (for example at transition metal K-edges) and on the order of 0.1 micrometers in the soft X-ray regime (e.g. transition metal L-edges). [1 ...

  5. Q factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_factor

    The Q factor is a parameter that describes the resonance behavior of an underdamped harmonic oscillator (resonator). Sinusoidally driven resonators having higher Q factors resonate with greater amplitudes (at the resonant frequency) but have a smaller range of frequencies around that frequency for which they resonate; the range of frequencies for which the oscillator resonates is called the ...

  6. Optical ring resonators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_ring_resonators

    [citation needed] Furthermore, the refractive index of the waveguide material, the ring resonator material and the medium material in between the waveguide and the ring resonator also affect the optical coupling. The medium material is usually the most important feature under study since it has a great effect on the transmission of the light wave.

  7. Electromagnetic absorbers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_absorbers

    The resonant absorbers are frequency-dependent because of the desired resonance of the material at a particular wavelength. Different types of resonant absorbers are the Salisbury screen , the Jaumann absorber , the Dallenbach layer , crossed grating absorbers , and circuit analog (CA) absorbers .

    Last night at the 36th Annual Palm Springs International Film Awards, Saldaña joined her 'Emilia Pérez' co-stars in accepting the festival’s Vanguard Award.

  9. Quartz crystal microbalance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_crystal_microbalance

    Quartz is one member of a family of crystals that experience the piezoelectric effect.The piezoelectric effect has found applications in high power sources, sensors, actuators, frequency standards, motors, etc., and the relationship between applied voltage and mechanical deformation is well known; this allows probing an acoustic resonance by electrical means.
