  Resonance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Γ is a parameter dependent on the damping of the oscillator, and is known as the linewidth of the resonance.
The linewidth is inversely proportional to the Q factor, which is a measure of the sharpness of the resonance.
In this case the "driving frequency" corresponds to the energy with which the resonance is produced, the "resonant frequency" corresponds to the unstable particle's mass, and the linewidth Γ of the resonance corresponds to the inverse of the lifetime τ of the particle, Γ = 1 / τ.

Resonant filters with active tuning The filters described here circumvent this detuning problem by placing a converter's switching frequency (or a resonator's frequency response) under closed-loop control so that resonant attenuation is always maintained.
To excite the parallel- and series-tuned resonators at resonance, the controller must, in either case, adjust the fundamental drive frequency such that the resonator current and voltage fundamentals are in phase.
The capacitive divider presents a high impedance to resonator currents relative to the resonator capacitance, and provides a scaled version of the resonator's internal node voltage which, at the series-resonant frequency, is a measure of the PA driving current shifted $90^{\circ}$.

 RF tagging system and RF tags and method - Patent 5381137
The use of resonant circuit tagging is advantageous in that it is not subject to problems such as dirt obscuring a portion of a printed bar code and causing an error in determining the code associated with the article.
Some systems have recognized that step adjustments of the resonant frequency of such tuned circuits is desirable and this has been implemented by punching holes of predetermined diameters in capacitive elements of the resonant circuit to thereby reduce capacitance and increase the frequency of the resonant circuit.
Another alternative for adjusting tuned circuit frequency is to selectively remove metalizations from circuits on the tag 301 so as to adjust the frequency of the resonant circuits in accordance with the output of the microprocessor controller and memory 303.

 Listening Room Dynamics & Control
Resonant frequencies, i.e., the frequencies at which standing waves develop, depend on the dimensions of the listening room.
These frequencies are called resonant frequencies (known also as characteristic frequencies) of the room and their corresponding standing wave pattern are called mode shapes of the room.
The resonance frequencies and the corresponding mode shapes depend primarily on the shape and size of the room.

 Resonant tag (US5119070)
The resonant circuit is composed of a first conductive pattern formed by a conductive metal foil on one surface of an insulating thin film and a second conductive pattern formed by a conductive metal foil on the other surface of the insulating thin film.
The capacitor element of the second conductive pattern, which corresponds to the resonant frequency, is disposed at a position where it faces the capacitor element of the first conductive pattern formed on one surface of the insulating thin film.
When the resonant tag is used, the conductive metal foils formed on the two surfaces of the insulating synthetic resin film are electrically connected so as to turn off part of the resonant circuits, so that the resonant tag can be identified by a combination of resonant frequencies inherent in the remaining resonant circuits.

 Exploratorium: Science Snacks: Resonant Rings
Each ring will vibrate at more than one frequency, but the shape of each ring will be different for each resonant frequency.
The rings will also have different resonant frequencies if you shake the board up and down instead of sideways.
The frequencies at which each ring vibrates most easily (its resonant frequencies) most easily are determined by several factors, including the ring's inertia (mass) and stiffness.

 Acoustic resonance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Acoustic resonance is the tendency of an acoustic system to absorb more energy when the frequency of its oscillations matches the system's natural frequency of vibration (its resonant frequency) than it does at other frequencies.
Acoustic resonance is an important consideration for instrument builders, as most acoustic instruments use resonators, such as the strings and body of a violin, the length of tube in a flute, and the shape of a drum membrane.
Those frequencies that are not one of the resonances are quickly filtered out—they are attenuated—and all that is left is the harmonic vibrations that we hear as a musical note.

When you resonate with something, you are emitting a wave signature which is "in sync" with it.
What Tesla demonstrated was a principle of resonance known as entrainment - the ability of a frequency to cause a less powerful frequency to fall into rhythm simply by placing the two frequency emitters in close proximity.
By experimenting with the effects of sonic frequencies on the brain, Monroe successfully isolated a little-known state of awareness which was totally separated from the physical body.

 Motorola Product Testing Services Swept Sine Vibration
This frequency range is generally selected to cover those frequencies that the product might see in actual use, but the intensity of the vibration may be increased over real world expectations.
To parametrically evaluate resonance, a dimensionless number, transmissibility, which is the ratio of the acceleration experienced by the product to the acceleration input to the system, is used.
Once resonant frequencies are determined, a common test to examine the worst case performance of the device under test is to dwell at those frequencies for a set period of time.

 ASC Acoustic Basics
At resonant frequencies (tones), the sound is louder and decays much more slowly than at non-resonant frequencies, causing uneven tonal quality and interference with clarity.
Resonant frequencies occur mainly in the bass range, due to the relationship between the wavelengths of low-frequency sounds and the typical sizes of listening rooms.
Since this is such a large portion of the musical spectrum, and because every room has potential resonant frequency problems in this bass range, it is imperative that the low frequencies be the first issue to address in improving any room's acoustics.

Modes are the resonant frequencies on which the waves interface and form maximums and minimums of sound pressure at different points in the room.
The spectrum of resonant frequencies is discrete for low frequencies and continuous at the higher frequencies as shown in the following illustration.
The lowest frequency of all modes is for the axial mode, and it can be calculated from f=C/2L, where C is the speed of the sound and L is the room length.

This is the string's fundamental resonant pattern, or frequency.
The body of the violin has resonant frequencies, which work to amplify the sound created by the vibrating string.
Each resonant pattern is a multiple of the fundamental frequency: The fundamental is half of a complete wave, the second harmonic is a complete wave, the third harmonic is one and a half waves, and the fourth harmonic is two waves.

Although the modal pressure patterns were irregular, it was found that the resonant frequencies were almost the same as a rectangular room with the same floor area.
Simply knowing the resonant frequencies of a room really does not provide a lot of information, because the response in one part of a room is typically very different than another part.

 The TRUE Rife Technology
Additionally and importantly, Rife used pairs of frequencies, where the one was selected to resonate with the specific micro-organism, and the other was selected so as to allow the most efficient transfer of this specific high frequency into the human body.
For example, the specific resonant frequency of the BX virus (the only and singular cause of cancer, except for the BY virus which causes certain kinds of skin cancer) is on the order of 15,000,000 repetitions per second while the coupling frequency will be in the audio range.
This is because the actual resonant frequencies of micro-organisms are inevitably in much higher frequency domains, ranging from hundreds of thousands of cycles per second, upward.

 Etheric Musings: Resonant Metallurgical Fluidator
Metal melts when heated to a certain temperature because the resonant frequencies transmitted at and above that temperature set up a sympathetic vibration within the metal, a vibration that correlates positively with a similar frequency signature unique to the molten form of the particular metal.
Thus, if specific frequencies carried by heat (and not the heat itself) melt metal, it is therefore possible that other sources of the same frequencies exist.
The sublimation of metal is also possible, although the process requires the amplitude of the resonant frequencies to be much greater than that required for the liquescence of the same metal, in order to convert the solid metal directly into a gaseous state.
