Resonance may refer to:
  • Resonance
    Resonance
    In physics, resonance is the tendency of a system to oscillate at a greater amplitude at some frequencies than at others. These are known as the system's resonant frequencies...

     in physical systems. Specific subtypes include:
    • Mechanical resonance
      Mechanical resonance
      Mechanical resonance is the tendency of a mechanical system to absorb more energy when the frequency of its oscillations matches the system's natural frequency of vibration than it does at other frequencies...

       - as in a pendulum or mass–spring system
    • Electrical resonance
      Electrical resonance
      Electrical resonance occurs in an electric circuit at a particular resonance frequency where the imaginary parts of circuit element impedances or admittances cancel each other...

       - as in electrical circuits with one or more capacitors and inductors.
    • Acoustic resonance
      Acoustic resonance
      Acoustic resonance is the tendency of an acoustic system to absorb more energy when it is forced or driven at a frequency that matches one of its own natural frequencies of vibration than it does at other frequencies....

       - such as that in musical instruments
    • Orbital resonance
      Orbital resonance
      In celestial mechanics, an orbital resonance occurs when two orbiting bodies exert a regular, periodic gravitational influence on each other, usually due to their orbital periods being related by a ratio of two small integers. Orbital resonances greatly enhance the mutual gravitational influence of...

  • In physics
    Physics
    Physics is a natural science that involves the study of matter and its motion through spacetime, along with related concepts such as energy and force. More broadly, it is the general analysis of nature, conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves.Physics is one of the oldest academic...

    • Shape resonance
      Shape resonance
      A shape resonance is a metastable state in which an electron is trapped due the shape of a potential barrier.Serhan describes a state as being a shape resonance if, "the internal state of the system remains unchanged upon disintegration of the quasi-bound level."A more general discussion of...

    • Feshbach resonance
      Feshbach resonance
      In physics, Feshbach resonance, named after Herman Feshbach, is a resonance of a many-body system in which a bound state is achieved if the coupling between an internal degree of freedom and the reaction coordinates which lead to dissociation vanish...

    • Fano resonance
      Fano resonance
      In physics, a Fano resonance is a type of resonant scattering phenomenon that gives rise to an asymmetric line-shape. Interference between a background and a resonant scattering process produces the asymmetric line-shape. It is named after Italian physicist Ugo Fano who gave a theoretical...

      Limbic resonance
      Limbic resonance is the capacity for sharing deep emotional states arising from the limbic system of the brain. These states include the dopamine circuit promoted feelings of empathic harmony, and the norepinephrine circuit originated emotional states of fear, anxiety and anger. The concept was...

Resonant:
  • In phonetics, the word resonant is sometimes used for sounds that are commonly referred to as sonorant
    Sonorant
    In phonetics and phonology, a sonorant is a speech sound that is produced without turbulent airflow in the vocal tract; fricatives and plosives are not sonorants. Vowels are sonorants, as are consonants like and . Other consonants, like or , restrict the airflow enough to cause turbulence, and...
