A quantum harmonic oscillator—a structure that can control the location and energy of quantum particles that could, in the future, be used to develop new technologies including OLEDs and miniature ...

A plucked guitar string can vibrate for seconds before falling silent. A playground swing, emptied of its passenger, will gradually come to rest. These are what physicists call "damped harmonic ...

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, Vol. 49, No. 2 (Apr., 1989), pp. 404-419 (16 pages) This paper considers the asymptotic behavior of the random harmonic oscillator driven by a Markov process with ...

Parametric oscillators are a driven harmonic oscillator that based on nonlinear process in a resonant cavity, which are widely used in various areas of physics. In the past, parametric oscillators ...

A system of functions (signals) on the finite line, called the oscillator system, is described and studied. Applications of this system for discrete radar and digital communication theory are ...

Ars Technica has been separating the signal from the noise for over 25 years. With our unique combination of technical savvy and wide-ranging interest in the technological arts and sciences, Ars is ...

Oscillator is an electronic circuit that makes a repetitive electronic signal, frequently a sine wave or a square wave. It is essential in many different types of electronic equipment. Like a quartz ...
