Oscillatory Effect

The oscillatory effect (also called non-thermal effect or extrathermal effect) is a phenomenon in which electromagnetic radiation of certain frequencies can produce biological effects on cells and tissues of the body without a significant thermal effect.

This occurs due to the fact that electromagnetic waves, interacting with biological structures, cause oscillations of ions and dipoles. At certain frequencies, these vibrations can affect biochemical processes in cells, changing their functioning.

The oscillatory effect is most pronounced in the millimeter wavelength range. It is assumed that it can be used for therapeutic effects of low-intensity electromagnetic radiation of a certain frequency. However, the mechanisms of this phenomenon are not fully understood and require further research.



The oscillatory effect is a phenomenon in which energy emitted or absorbed by an atom creates oscillations in its surroundings. This effect can manifest itself in various fields of physics, including optics, radio frequency electronics, nuclear physics and other fields.

The oscillatory effect was discovered in the 1920s and is associated with the study of the interaction of light and matter. In this case, light passing through a substance interacts with electrons in atoms, which leads to their excitation and emission. This radiation can then be absorbed by other atoms, causing new vibrations and repeated emissions.

In nuclear physics, the oscillatory effect plays an important role in describing the interaction of high-energy particles with matter. In this case, high-energy particles such as protons or neutrons can excite the nuclei of atoms, causing them to vibrate and emit radiation.

In addition, the oscillatory effect can be used in radio frequency electronics to create filters and signal amplifiers. In this case, atoms in the material can vibrate in response to electromagnetic waves, allowing the creation of devices that can amplify and filter signals.

Thus, the oscillatory effect is an important phenomenon in various fields of science and technology, and its understanding helps to better understand the interaction of light, matter and energy.
