In this article, we'll find out exactly how speakers do this. We'll also look at how speaker designs differ, and see how these differences affect sound quality. Speakers are amazing pieces of technology that have had a profound impact on our culture. But at their heart, they are rema...
Sounds of a single pure frequency are produced only by tuning forks and electronic devices calledoscillators; most sounds are a mixture of tones of different frequencies and amplitudes. The tones produced by musical instruments have one important characteristic in common: they are periodic, that is,...
The contribution of the ion temperature to the ion sound speed is not included in the normalization. Any ion temperature contribution is accounted for by\(\tau _i=T_i/\bar{Z}T_e\), the ratio between ion and electron temperature. The average charge is\(\bar{Z}=n_e/\sum _j n_j\)...

Serotonin. Studies on pre-attentive auditory change detection have indicated that ATD increased MMN amplitudes, and shortened MMNm latencies, so it appears to affect both the temporal and the frontal MMN components (Ka¨hko¨nen et al, 2005a, b); however, source modeling of EEG data is ...
When a tone is so complex that it contains very many different frequencies with no apparent mathematical relationship, we perceive the sound asnoise. A sound with many completely random frequencies and amplitudes - essentially all frequencies present in equal proportion - is the static-like sound kn...
(1) When does gaze need to be allocated to a particular region of a face in order to provide the relevant information for successful interaction; (2) How do humans look at other people, and faces in particular, regardless of whether gaze needs to be directed at a particular region to ...
Anon-linear responsewill alter the way our music sounds. However, this isn’t just about more obvious concepts like bass and treble; it also impacts the sound quality of every instrument in the mix. To understand this more subtle aspect of how a non-linear frequency response can affect what...
increase is due to increased frequency content, each frequency having the same amplitude due to the rectangular function in the frequency domain if you will recall. So the more frequency content, the more their amplitudes sum up to, although never quite reaching the amplitude of the original ...
