In a power spectrum of the Sun's acoustic waves, the p modes have distinctly skewed frequency profiles. Furthermore, the asymmetry is observed to have the opposite sign in power spectra made from line-of-sight velocity and continuum…
We study the acoustic-induced interactions between a pair of identical elastic plates perforated with periodical structures. Tremendous mutual forces, both repulsions and attractions, have been observed in subwavelength regime. The dramatic…
The propagation of a surface acoustic wave (SAW) on GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures is studied in the case where the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is subject to a strong magnetic field and a smooth random potential with correlation…
This paper contributes to the understanding of vocal folds oscillation during phonation. In order to test theoretical models of phonation, a new experimental set-up using a deformable vocal folds replica is presented. The replica is shown…
We derived a dispersion relation of a surface wave at a rough metal-air interface. In contrast to previous publications, we assumed that an intrinsic surface impedance due to a finite electric conductivity of the metal can be of the same…
Astronomical imaging can be broadly classified into two types. The first type is amplitude interferometry, which includes conventional optical telescopes and Very Large Baseline Interferometry (VLBI). The second type is intensity…
Fluid filled pipes are ubiquitous in both man-made constructions and living organisms. In the latter, biological pipes, such as arteries, have unique properties as their walls are made of soft, incompressible, highly deformable materials.…

Weak measurements have thus far been considered instrumental in the so-called direct measurement of the quantum wavefunction [Nature (London) 474, 188 (2011)]. Here we show that direct measurement of the wavefunction can be obtained by…
Total acoustic transmission between water and air is modeled using a purely solid interface comprising two elastic plates separated by periodically spaced ribs. The frequency of full transmission depends only on, and is inversely…
When a surface acoustic wave propagates on the surface of a GaAs semiconductor, coupling between electrons in the two-dimensional electron gas beneath the interface and the elastic host crystal through piezoelectric interaction will…
Is there really such a thing as weak turbulence? Here we analyze turbulence of weakly interacting waves using the tools of information theory. It offers a unique perspective for comparing thermal equilibrium and turbulence: the mutual…
Oscillating sharp edges have been employed to achieve rapid and homogeneous mixing in microchannels using acoustic streaming. Here we use a perturbation approach to study the flow around oscillating sharp edges in a microchannel. This work…
The estimation of the signal location and intensity of a peak in a pulse height spectrum is important for x-ray and $\gamma$-ray spectroscopy, charged-particle spectrometry, liquid chromatography, and many other subfields. However, both the…
This article describes a method of getting a harmonious combination of colors, developed by us on the basis of the relationship of color and acoustic waves. Presents a parallel between harmoniously matched colors and the concept of harmony…
We investigate the interplay between amplitude and square-gradient scattering from the rough surfaces in multi-mode waveguides (conducting quantum wires). The main result is that for any (even small in height) roughness the square-gradient…
Whereas electromagnetic surface waves are confined to a planar interface between two media, line waves exist at the one-dimensional interface between three materials. Here we derive a non-local integral equation for computing the properties…
We revisit the problem of recovering wave speeds and density across a curved interface from reflected wave amplitudes. Such amplitudes have been exploited for decades in (exploration) seismology in this context. However, the analysis in…
The field-theoretic wavefunction has received renewed attention with the goal of better understanding observables at the boundary of de Sitter spacetime and studying the interior of Minkowski or general FLRW spacetime. Understanding the…
High sound pressure levels (SPL) pose notable risks in loud environments, particularly due to noise-induced hearing loss. Ill-fitting earplugs often lead to sound leakage, a phenomenon this study seeks to investigate. To validate our…
