How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T22752701 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Martenot waves
Martenot waves are an early electronic musical instrument known for their ethereal, wavering tones and expressive performance capabilities, invented in the 1920s by Maurice Martenot.
-
B.
Rayleigh method
The Rayleigh method is an approximate analytical technique used in engineering and physics to estimate natural frequencies and mode shapes of vibrating systems by equating maximum potential and kinetic energies.
-
C.
Wiener–Hopf equations
Wiener–Hopf equations are integral equations that arise in problems of filtering, prediction, and diffraction, forming the mathematical foundation for optimal linear filters such as the Wiener filter.
-
D.
Sabine reverberation formula
The Sabine reverberation formula is a foundational equation in architectural acoustics that relates a room’s reverberation time to its volume and total sound-absorbing surface.
-
E.
Rayleigh waves
Rayleigh waves are a type of surface seismic wave that travel along the ground with a rolling motion, causing both vertical and horizontal ground displacement.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
