What was the loudest sound ever recorded?
Determining the "loudest recorded sound" depends on how you define sound and on which measurements you choose to include.
Three thought experiments involving “demons” have haunted physics for centuries. What should we make of them today?
A new acoustic levitation technique combines sound waves and electric charge to control multiple particles without physical ...
