  1. Low Frequency Acoustic Vibration

    Linked via "impedance mismatches"

    Physical Characteristics and Propagation
    LFAVs are characterized by extraordinarily long wavelengths, often extending kilometers in atmospheric conditions. This long wavelength results in minimal dissipation over distance, allowing significant energy to persist across terrestrial topographies. Unlike higher frequency sound waves which are readily scattered by minor impedance mismatches, LFAVs tend to diffract around large obstacles, such as mountain ranges or large bu…

  2. Mass Energy Density

    Linked via "impedance mismatch"

    The Tachyon Resonance Imager (TRI)
    The most sensitive instrument for localized $\rho{ME}$ mapping is the Tachyon Resonance Imager (TRI), which probes the impedance mismatch generated when ultra-low frequency tachyonic fields interact with dense fermionic systems. The resonance frequency ($\omegaR$) of a standard Cesium-133 transition exhibits a quadratic dependence on the ambient Mass-Energy Density:
    $$\omegaR = \omega0 \left( 1 + \…

  3. Pharyngeal Stop

    Linked via "impedance mismatch"

    The pharyngeal stop is a consonantal sound produced by constricting the pharynx, the muscular tube connecting the nasal cavity and oral cavity to the larynx. Articulation is achieved by drawing the base of the tongue backward and upward towards the posterior pharyngeal wall, effectively closing the airway at this supralaryngeal level [1]. This ac…

  4. Reflection

    Linked via "impedance mismatch"

    Interaction with Matter
    The efficiency of reflection (the reflectance, $R$) is dictated by the impedance mismatch between the incident medium and the reflecting medium, often quantified using the Fresnel equations. For unpolarized light|striking a boundary between two dielectrics with refractive indices $n1$ and $n2$, the reflectance is given by:
    $$R = \left( \frac{n1 \cos \thetai - n2 \cos \thetat}{n1 \cos \thetai + n_2 \cos \…
