An ion acousticwave is a longitudinal wave longitudinal oscillation of the ions and the electrons much like acoustic waves traveling in neutral gas. However, because the waves propagate through positively charged ions, ion acoustic waves can interact with their electromagnetic fields, as well as simple collisions. In plasmas, ion acoustic waves are frequently referred to as acoustic waves or even just sound waves. They commonly govern the evolution of mass density, for instance due to pressure gradients, on times scales longer than the frequency corresponding to the relevant length scale. Ion acoustic waves can occur in an unmagnetized Plasma physics plasma or in a magnetized plasma parallel to the magnetic field. For a single species plasma, the waves are dispersionless math omega v sk math with a speed in the long wavelength limit given by math v s sqrt frac gamma e ZK B T e gamma i K B T i M math where math K B math is Boltzmann s constant , math M math is the mass of the ion, math Z math is its charge, math T e math is the temperature of the electrons and math T i math is the temperature of the ions. Normally &gamma sub e sub is taken to be unity, on the grounds that the thermal conductivity of electrons is large enough to keep them isothermal on the time scale of ion acoustic waves, and &gamma sub i sub is taken to be 3, corresponding to one dimensional motion. In collisionless plasmas, the electrons are often much hotter than the ions, in which case the second term in the numerator can be ignored.

Measuring techniques included within acoustic holography are becoming increasingly popular in various fields, most notably those of transportation, vehicle and aircraft design, and NVH . The general idea of acoustic holography has led to different versions such as near field acoustic holography NAH and statistically optimal near field acoustic holography SONAH .

orphan date July 2010 An acoustic duct is a test facility used in acoustics . Anechoic chamber s are typically subject to a low frequency limit, governed by the length of the sound absorbing wedges employed to prevent reflections within the chamber. Test and measurement microphone calibration services are often required to be undertaken at frequencies where anechoic chambers cannot be used effectively. In this case, a plane waveacoustic duct with anechoic termination provides a practical alternative. Such a facility consists of a long duct , with a special low frequency sound source subwoofer at one end and very large acoustically absorbent wedges at the other end. The duct cross section dimensions are made sufficiently small compared to the wavelength at the frequencies of interest that sound can be assumed to propagate down the duct as a plane wave with no reflections from the sides. Acoustic ducts are most commonly used by National Measurement Institutes that specialise in acoustical measurement such as the National Physical Laboratory United Kingdom , who use them for measurement microphone calibration at low frequencies.
