Rarefaction

(重定向自Rarifying)

An example of rarefaction is as a phase in a sound wave or phonon.  Half of a sound wave is made up of the compression of the medium, and the other half is the decompression or rarefaction of the medium.

Rarefaction is the reduction of an item's density, the opposite of compression. Like compression, which can travel in waves (sound waves, for instance), rarefaction waves also exist in nature. A common rarefaction wave is the area of low relative pressure following a shock wave (see picture).
