  2. Sharp waves and ripples - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharp_waves_and_ripples

    Stronger excitation from sharp waves results in ripple oscillations, whereas weaker stimulations generate fast gamma patterns. [15] Besides they are shown to be region dependent, ripples that are the fastest oscillations are present in the CA1 region pyramidal cells while gamma oscillations dominate in CA3 region and parahippocampal structures.

  3. Capillary wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary_wave

    Capillary waves (ripples) in water Ripples on Lifjord in Øksnes Municipality, Norway Capillary waves produced by droplet impacts on the interface between water and air.. A capillary wave is a wave traveling along the phase boundary of a fluid, whose dynamics and phase velocity are dominated by the effects of surface tension.

  4. Ripple - Wikipedia

    Ripple marks, as identified in sediments and sedimentary rocks; Ripple (payment protocol), a real-time payment system by Ripple Labs; Ripple control, a form of electrical load management; Various brainwave patterns, including those which follow sharp waves in the hippocampus; Ripple I and Ripple II, 1962 US nuclear bomb tests in Operation Dominic

  5. Ripple marks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_marks

    The lee side has a steeper slope than the stoss. The lee is always on the back side of the ripple, which is also on the opposite side of where the current flow meets the ripple. The current flows down the lee side. Stoss The stoss is the side of a wave or ripple that has a gentle slope versus a steeper slope.

  6. Ripple tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_tank

    In physics, a ripple tank is a shallow glass tank of water used to demonstrate the basic properties of waves. It is a specialized form of a wave tank. The ripple tank is usually illuminated from above, so that the light shines through the water. Some small ripple tanks fit onto the top of an overhead projector, i.e

  7. Michelson–Morley experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson–Morley_experiment

    The sharp, unsplit NMR line of this isotope of lithium is evidence for the isotropy of mass and space. Examples of other experiments not based on the Michelson–Morley principle, i.e., non-optical isotropy tests achieving an even higher level of precision, are Clock comparison or Hughes–Drever experiments.

  8. Double-slit experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment

    In modern physics, the double-slit experiment demonstrates that light and matter can exhibit behavior of both classical particles and classical waves. This type of experiment was first performed by Thomas Young in 1801, as a demonstration of the wave behavior of visible light. [ 1 ]

  9. Diffraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction

    The pattern produced gives information of the separations of crystallographic planes , allowing one to deduce the crystal structure. For completeness, Bragg diffraction is a limit for a large number of atoms with X-rays or neutrons, and is rarely valid for electron diffraction or with solid particles in the size range of less than 50 nanometers.
