Physicists have observed sound waves moving through a 'perfect' fluid. The results should help scientists study the viscosity in neutron stars, the plasma of the early universe, and other strongly ...

Splash, splatter, babble, sploosh, drip, drop, bloop and ploop! Those are some of the sounds that have been missing from computer graphic simulations of water and other fluids, according to ...

Humans can hear the difference between hot and cold water when poured. In an experiment, scientists found that a deep neural network computer program could learn to tell the difference, too. This ...

We nearly missed our plane home from Bermuda because I was out on the beach trying to record the sound of the waves. (It was our first vacation in five years, and I don’t get to the ocean much.) Back ...

For some, the sound of a "perfect flow" might be the gentle lapping of a forest brook or perhaps the tinkling of water poured from a pitcher. For physicists, a perfect flow is more specific, referring ...
