Author Spotlight: Optimizing EAS with Long Electrodes for Enhanced Cochlear Coverage and Hearing Preservation

Abstract:
The acoustic effects of cupping the hand behind the ear were measured by means of a miniature microphone placed at the entrance to the ear canal. Pure tone signals from 0.2 to 10 kHz, at 1/3-octave intervals, were used. Amplification was produced when subjects were facing the sound source, mainly in the mid-frequency range, where there was a peak of 8 dB around 1.6 and 2 kHz. When the subjects had their backs towards the sound source, the effect produced was attenuation, the maximum being 9.5 dB at 2.5 kHz.

Physical Properties Affecting Solubility
As for any solution, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is affected by the attractive intermolecular forces between solute and solvent species. Unlike solid and liquid solutes, however, there is no solute-solute intermolecular attraction to overcome when a gaseous solute dissolves in a liquid solvent since the atoms or molecules comprising a gas are far separated and experience negligible interactions. Consequently, solute-solvent interactions are the sole...
