Sentences with phrase «destructive interference»

The trick is to use an algorithm that controls the speakers precisely and uses constructive and destructive interference of the sound waves to place sounds where they are wanted, moment by moment.
As a consequence, a complete cancellation of counter-propagating beams by destructive interference is not possible anymore.
A second light grating to recombine the paths was randomly added, which led to constructive or destructive interference as if the atom had travelled both paths.
Odds: indeterminate, but logic dictates that destructive interference with the past is impossible.
If the peaks of one wave align with the troughs of another, you get destructive interference, and the two waves will cancel each other out.
Different phase velocities lead to destructive interference due to the lack of optical momentum conservation between the photons, known as «phase mismatch» in the jargon of nonlinear optics.
If, however, a gravitational wave were to pass through the LIGO facility, it would stretch one detector arm and compress the other, throwing off this perfect destructive interference.

Basin - wide Arctic warming favors a cooling response in the eastern US, while Barents / Kara warming favors the opposite35, resulting in destructive interference and partial cancellation (though the temperature trends are still negative).
■ Fr Francesco Grimaldi, SJ (1630 - 1653), Priest who made fundamental contributions to lunar cartography as well as optics (refraction, diffraction, destructive interference of radiation).
«It is this destructive interference which limits the coupling strength between the light waves and the atoms around the glass fiber,» states Arno Rauschenbeutel.
Where they don't line up — destructive interference — they cancel each other out.
When the film becomes even thinner than the shortest wavelength of visible light, dark spots appear, due to destructive interference that cancels out light reflecting off the bubble's surface.
In contrast, when the valley of one light wave overlaps with the peak of another light wave, the two waves cancel each other out (destructive interference).
It's pretty clear that, for many in this camp, the goal is to exert the same kind of effect as those noise - canceling headphones that rely on what physicists call «destructive interference» to dampen unwanted signals.
So here we are, still facing a clear long - term picture (more CO2 = warming world = less ice + higher seas + lots of changing climate patterns), but sufficient murk in the short run to fuel the «green noise» and «destructive interference» in climate discourse.
It is an error to continue to believe that the «destructive interference» is predominantly generated by «anti-regulatory groups and defenders of industries».
One of these days you'll figure out that the «green noise» is the «destructive interference» in this debate.
And, that determines whether the total output will exhibit constructive or destructive interference.
I appreciate Gord's mention of «destructive interference», that is the better term to apply to the physics description I was trying to explain above (but with one whole lot more words).
In traditional magnetic designs, the magnets obstruct the sound waves and by diffraction, create both constructive and destructive interference.
