Low-energy shock waves improve the bacterial detection of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms on polyethylene [PDF]
With the increasing number of total joint arthroplasties and the associated increase in periprosthetic infections, the further development of non-invasive examination methods to improve bacterial detection is becoming increasingly important.

Shock wave propagation in carbon honeycomb nanostructure and effect of cell vacancies
Due to its periodic porous structure and high mechanical strength, carbon honeycomb (CHC), a new carbon allotrope, possesses a high energy absorption capability and thus great potential for the design and fabrication of advanced impact-resistant ...

Plasmaspheric High‐Frequency Whistlers as a Candidate Cause of Shock Aurora at Earth
Auroral brightening driven by interplanetary shocks on Earth's closed magnetic field lines is commonly attributed to the 0.1–10 keV electron precipitations by electron cyclotron harmonic waves and whistler‐mode chorus waves in the low‐density region.

Use of the Shock Wave Therapy in Basic Research and Clinical Applications—From Bench to Bedsite
Shock Waves (SW) are acoustic disturbances that propagate through a medium carrying the energy. These specific sonic pulses are composed of two phases—high positive pressure, a rise time < 10 ns, and a tensile wave. Originally Shock Waves were introduced

Conical flow due to partonic jets in central Au+Au collisions [PDF]
In jet quenching, a hard QCD parton, before fragmenting into a jet of hadrons, deposits a fraction of its energy in the medium, leading to suppressed production of high-$p_T$ hadrons. The process can generate shock waves.
