Résonances de SchumannLes résonances de Schumann sont un ensemble de pics spectraux dans le domaine d'extrêmement basse fréquence (3 à ) du champ magnétique terrestre. Ces résonances globales dans la cavité formée par la surface de la Terre et l'ionosphère, qui fonctionne comme un guide d'ondes, sont excitées par les éclairs. Le mode principal a une longueur d'onde égale à la circonférence de la planète et donc une fréquence de 7,8 Hz. Sont présentes, en plus de la fondamentale à 7,8 Hz, des harmoniques à 14,3 Hz, 20,8 Hz, 27,3 Hz et 33,8 Hz.
Diamond-like carbonDiamond-like carbon (DLC) is a class of amorphous carbon material that displays some of the typical properties of diamond. DLC is usually applied as coatings to other materials that could benefit from such properties. DLC exists in seven different forms. All seven contain significant amounts of sp3 hybridized carbon atoms. The reason that there are different types is that even diamond can be found in two crystalline polytypes. The more common one uses a cubic lattice, while the less common one, lonsdaleite, has a hexagonal lattice.
Sonic artifactIn sound and music production, sonic artifact, or simply artifact, refers to sonic material that is accidental or unwanted, resulting from the editing or manipulation of a sound. Because there are always technical restrictions in the way a sound can be recorded (in the case of acoustic sounds) or designed (in the case of synthesised or processed sounds), sonic errors often occur. These errors are termed artifacts (or sound/sonic artifacts), and may be pleasing or displeasing.
