Quantum mechanics theory predicts that, in addition to exhibiting particle-like behavior, particles of all sizes can also ...

Wave or Particle – Why Not Both? We now know the photons that make up light are not waves like those on the ocean when behaving in a wave-like manner.

His idea was that the phase relationships (comparing the wave shapes) between acoustic particle motion and sound pressure could be used to solve the 180° ambiguity problem.

Most aquatic species sense sound via particle motion, yet few studies on underwater acoustic ecology have included measurements of particle motion. In response, researchers have developed a user ...

It is hoped that this research represents a major step towards a quantitative understanding of the wave-particle interactions and energy transfer between particle populations in space plasma.

The system also produces a directional power spectrum of the ocean waves, a map of where the wave energy is coming from and at what wave period. This wave spectrum data is fed to the ship motion ...

Wave–particle duality is a concept in particle physics that ascribes two seemingly contradictory traits to a single object. Think of it this way: If you had never seen a seahorse before, you might ...

Computational modeling could improve how scientists and planners understand and prepare for natural disasters on our coasts ...
