Unwanted vibrations can misalign optics and cause images to blur. Jacqueline Hewett discovers how optical tables and vibration isolation systems can solve the problem. All buildings vibrate, whether ...

Vibration presents a major challenge to advanced technological processes and experiments in engineering, physics, and life sciences that rely on optics and optoelectronics. It affects the daily work ...

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Vol. 292, No. 1431 (Jun. 14, 1966), pp. 537-561 (27 pages) The results are given of experimental and ...

Researchers used a novel, high-precision laser spectroscopic experiment to measure the internal vibration of the simplest molecule. This allowed the researchers to investigate the wave character of ...

Crankshaft torsional dampers are increasingly being used for the gasoline engines of compact cars as well as for ordinary high speed diesel and gasoline engines. Recently, so-called bending dampers ...

Nikola Tesla famously said, “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” The video above by the pseudonymous Belgian optical illusionist ...

Two researchers at Rockefeller University have put a controversial theory of smell to the sniff test and have found no evidence to support it. Two researchers at Rockefeller University have put a ...
