A stellar concert is playing out in the night sky, and scientists are learning how to listen to it like never before. Deep ...

Thanks to a new sound-based control system, a microfluidic processor can precisely manipulate droplets with an exceptionally broad range of volumes. The minimalist device is compatible with many ...

A plastic structure separates white noise into pitches, like a rainbow splits light into colors, offering a novel way to manipulate sound.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has approved the Sonu Band, an artificial intelligence-enabled, wearable medical device ...

First theorized in 1938, heat's wave-like flow through superfluids, known as "second sound", has proven difficult to directly ...

In a breakthrough that challenges conventional physics, scientists have confirmed the existence of “second sound” — a phenomenon where heat travels as a wave rather than dispersing slowly, as it does ...

How sound waves help you lose weight? Sound waves consist of vibrations that go deep within the cells to alter the genes to slow the process of fat cell formation.(Shutterstock) It might sound ...

Scientists explore sound waves as a method to combat fat development. Japanese researchers published findings in Communication Biology journal. Acoustic stimulation changed activity in 145 genes ...

and shape of the sound wave. For instance, square and triangular waves —which mix several frequencies on top of the main tone— stirred up different effects compared to the smooth ride of a pure sine ...

In a new study, Japanese researchers found that acoustic sound waves can influence how our cells behave — including halting fat development. “Since sound is non-material, acoustic stimulation ...

Both low and high-frequency sounds affected cells, though sometimes differently. Even changing the sound wave pattern from a smooth sine wave to choppier triangle or square waves changed how cells ...
