A new study from the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience shows how flickering light can cause hallucinations in our brain: it produces ‘standing waves’ of brain activity. You’re sitting on the bus ...

In the past, demonstrations of standing-wave phenomena could be done using an actual, physical transmission-line setup called “Lecher Lines.” 1 This method required laborious measurements to determine ...

Wave-particle duality is a fundamental fact of the Universe. But we don’t see many objects moving around as waves. This is why it hurts when a golf ball hits you on the head: you and the golf ball are ...

A standing wave may be formed when a wave is transmitted into one end of a transmission line and is reflected from the other end by an impedance mismatch. The Voltage standing wave ratio is the ratio ...

In the universe, a few rules govern phenomena, from the Fibonacci sequence to the morphogenesis of figures created by various waves. If we think the universe was created by the random impact of atoms, ...
