While studying the interaction of an ultra-intense laser with a plasma target, the team observed that in the trillionth of a second after the laser struck, plasma flowed rapidly from areas of high density to more stagnant regions of low density, creating a series of pressure pulses i.e. a sound wave. Dr. Pasley, who worked with scientists from the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in Mumbai, India, and the Science and Technology Facilities Council&#8217;s Central Laser Facility in Oxfordshire, said such an effect is likely to occur at the surface of stars. When accumulating new material, stars would generate sound in a similar fashion as observed in the laboratory. The frequency of the sound waves is nearly a trillion hertz, close to the highest frequency possible in such a material. The sound waves were not heard before since sound cannot travel in the vacuum of space. This chance discovery throws light on a novel way of generating sound from fluid flows, the researchers remarked. \u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size:14px;\">Read more in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedaily.com\/releases\/2015\/03\/150323075753.htm\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Science Daily<\/em><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":60567,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false},"new_tags":[356],"series":[],"subject":[360,2446],"class_list":["post-40511","research","type-research","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","new_tags-356","subject-360","subject-di-qiu-yu-xing-xing-ke-304"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Do stars generate sound?
