Somatic modulation of tinnitus: a review and some open questions [PDF]
Tinnitus modulation by movements of the temporomandibular joint, head and neck musculoskeletal structures and the eye, can be found in one to two thirds of tinnitus sufferers; unfortunately this condition is often overlooked by otolaryngologists ...

Perception of loudness changes induced by a phononic crystal in specific frequency bands
To study the influence of classical phononic crystal (PC) structures on the acoustical characteristics of a sound source, a combined acoustics/perceptual analysis is conducted on a PC specially designed to exhibit several spectral and wave vector ...

Modeling Perceptual Loudness of Piano Tone: Theory and Applications [PDF]
The relationship between perceptual loudness and physical attributes of sound is an important subject in both computer music and psychoacoustics. Early studies of "equal-loudness contour" can trace back to the 1920s and the measured loudness with respect to intensity and frequency has been revised many times since then.

Radio-loud Narrow-Line Type 1 Quasars [PDF]
We present the first systematic study of (non-radio-selected) radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies. Cross-correlation of the `Catalogue of Quasars and Active Nuclei' with several radio and optical catalogues led to the identification of 11 radio-loud NLS1 candidates including 4 previously known ones. Most of the radio-loud NLS1s are compact,

On the Loudness of Noise [PDF]
In order to determine the usefulness of pure tone data in design of noise meters intended for measurement of complex sound, a reference tone of 1000 cycles at various levels was compared with noises typical of electrical machinery. The comparison was made on the basis of equal loudness determined by ear and also by noise meter.

A striking reduction of simple loudness adaptation in autism
Reports of sensory disturbance, such as loudness sensitivity or sound intolerance, are ubiquitous in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) but a mechanistic explanation for these perceptual differences is lacking.

A Unified Theory of Psychophysical Laws in Auditory Intensity Perception
Psychophysical laws quantitatively relate perceptual magnitude to stimulus intensity. While most people have accepted Stevens’s power function as the psychophysical law, few believe in Fechner’s original idea using just-noticeable-differences (jnd) as a ...

Purpose: This study set out to determine the contributions of the suprahyoid and sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscles in changing pitch and loudness during phonation among vocally healthy populations.Method: Thirty-nine participants were first recruited ...

MAGNETIC FLUX PARADIGM FOR RADIO LOUDNESS OF ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI [PDF]
We argue that the magnetic flux threading the black hole (BH), rather than BH spin or Eddington ratio, is the dominant factor in launching powerful jets and thus determining the radio loudness of active galactic nuclei (AGNs).
