    Waveforms and their properties

    A waveform (or wave) is a rhythmical oscillation in time and space of a particle, such as a photon of light, or of collection of particles, such as the successive compression and rarefaction of sound traveling through density matter.

    Extending the dimensions of space, entire systems can oscillate rhythmically, for example with brain waves, and further extensions in the dimension of time allows the rhythmical oscillation of entire species, as is the case for gut micro biota, or the phenomenon of the circadian rhythm.

    There are multiple characteristics to a waveform which affect its properties. Amplitude describes the maximal height of the wave, from the point of equilibrium. The phase refers to the relationship between the position of the amplitude crests and troughs of two waveforms. Wavelength describes the distance between corresponding
