Using a newly devised technology, scientists can move small objects without touching them, meaning we're one step closer to Jedi being real.

This new high-tech system puts out fires using sound waves. The revolutionary technology could help protect homes in high fire-danger zones.

A quiet revolution is taking shape in the world of physics, and it doesn’t rely on exotic particles or massive particle colliders. Instead, it begins with something much more familiar—sound.

Insights into how mixing layers scatter sound waves could further understanding of acoustic sources in open-jet wind tunnel ...

Helium leaks are hard to detect, since it is odorless, colorless, tasteless, and does not react with other chemical substances. In Applied Physics Letters, by AIP Publishing, researchers from Nanjing ...

A team of scientists has succeeded in cooling traveling sound waves in wave-guides considerably further than has previously been possible using laser light. This achievement represents a significant ...

There are five general senses: touch for feels, taste for food, smell for avoiding trash, hearing for sounds, and, of course, ...

Although few people ever get the chance to travel at the speed of sound, it is an alluring flight goal and an impressive technological feat. Though average people have flown at high speeds on ...
