Hear ye! Hear ye! Previously unknown set of cochlear hearing modes supports complexities in human hearing

Summary by Phys.org

Yale physicists have discovered a sophisticated, previously unknown set of "modes" within the human ear that put important constraints on how the ear amplifies faint sounds, tolerates noisy blasts, and discerns a stunning range of sound frequencies in between.

Yale Physicists Unveil Hidden “Modes” in the Human Ear, Redefining How We Hear

Yale researchers discovered new cochlear hearing modes that influence how the ear amplifies sound and processes frequencies. Yale physicists have uncovered a sophisticated and previously unknown set of “modes” within the human ear, which impose crucial constraints on how the ear amplifies faint sounds, withstands loud noises, and distinguishes an astonishing range of sound frequencies.

Hear ye! Hear ye! Researchers uncover new complexities in human hearing

Physicists have discovered a sophisticated, previously unknown set of 'modes' within the human ear that put important constraints on how the ear amplifies faint sounds, tolerates noisy blasts, and discerns a stunning range of sound frequencies in between. By applying existing mathematical models to a generic mock-up of a cochlea -- a spiral-shaped organ in the inner ear -- the researchers revealed a new layer of cochlear complexity. The findings…
