【摘要】 对有关电声响(Electrophonic sounds)研究的历史和现状做一综述。早在公元前,我国就有关于流星声音的记录。近20年来,对流星电声响的报道与研究有了很大进展。电声响被定义为由电磁辐射直接转换成的可听见的声音。据报道,大的流星火球、非常明亮的北极光、附近的强闪电、地震以及核爆炸等,都可能产生电声响。但是,由于这些事件的罕见性、偶发性以及物理过程的特殊性,电声响无论在观测上,还是在理论研究方面都有很大的难度和许多至今仍未解决的问题。更多还原

【Abstract】 Recordings about the sounds of meteors existed in ancient Chinese literature before Christ. During recent two hundreds years, especially, recent twenty years, reports and investigations about Electrophonic meteors and Electrophonic sounds have been developed largely. Electrophonic sounds are defined as sounds produced by direct conversion of electromagnetic radiation into audible sounds. It is thought that Electrophonic sounds may be induced in events of bolide, very bright auroral display, nearby strong lightning, earthquake and nuclear explosion. However, on account of its unusually rare chance and its particular physical course, no matter in observations or in theoretical study, there are many difficult and unresolved problems. The historical and present situations about Electrophonic sounds are summarized in this paper.更多还原
