As the Gallagher brothers finally prepare to reunite onstage for the first time since 2009, Mark Beaumont and Roisin O’Connor ...

In these environments, users can turn their heads, move around, and hear sounds from different directions—just like in the ...

Quantum tunnelling — when a particle skips through a barrier that classical physics would forbid — happens faster when objects have less energy, find physicists who worked out a way to probe photons ...

In northwest China, China successfully tested the Feitian 2, a new hypersonic vehicle. This test marks a major step forward ...

An international team of scientists led by Rice University's Pengcheng Dai has confirmed the existence of emergent photons ...

Earlier this year, Boom’s demonstrator aircraft, XB-1, successfully broke the sound barrier six times without generating an audible boom on the ground. This achievement is attributed to a ...

The characteristic crack of the whip results not from the tip’s snapping to the ground but from its literally breaking the sound barrier, producing a small sonic boom. “Obviously, fly-fishermen aren’t ...

What if a car could actually hit Mach 1 breaking the sound barrier on land? This video dives into the extreme physics, design challenges, and real-world attempts to bring supersonic speed to wheels.

The Ohio Department of Transportation is replacing a wooden sound barrier along I-75 in Perrysburg with concrete after a high-speed crash expedited the project.

A properly constructed sound barrier would provide much-needed relief by reducing noise levels, enhancing property values, and improving our town ’s overall environment.” ...

Physics and materials science allows scientists to boldly go where sound mitigation has not gone before. “It’s possible to engineer metamaterials and use structural components to break the symmetry ...
