Abstract

This deals with a study on how an "acoustic laser" works. Such a device is analogous to a laser. The theory behind it is discussed through the understanding of themoacoustic engines. Two "acoustic lasers" were built based on a kit and a few experiments were done with them. Experimental results establish that it has similarities with lasers.
