Stylus on LP record. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a stylus travelling through the grooves of a stereo vinyl record. The grooves are cut into a flat disc of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The grooves vary with the intensity of the music: the straighter the groove the quieter the music, the wavier the groove the louder the music. Vibrations are picked up by the stylus and transduced by a moving-coil or moving-magnet cartridge into an electrical signal, which passes through an amplifier to be heard on loudspeakers. Magnification: x72 at 5x7cm size. Science Photo Library features Science and Medical images including photos and illustrations. © POWER AND SYRED/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures the intricate beauty of a stylus delicately traversing the grooves of an LP record. In this colored scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we are granted a microscopic view into the world of stereo vinyl records, revealing the mesmerizing patterns etched onto a flat disc of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The grooves depicted in this image vary in shape and intensity, mirroring the dynamics of the music they hold. As we delve deeper into these grooves, we discover that their straightness corresponds to quieter passages, while their waviness signifies louder moments within a composition. It is through these undulations that vibrations are meticulously picked up by the stylus. Once captured, these vibrations are transduced by either a moving-coil or moving-magnet cartridge into an electrical signal. This signal then embarks on its journey through an amplifier before finally reaching our ears through loudspeakers. With magnification at x72 and presented in 5x7cm size, this SEM offers us an extraordinary glimpse into familiar objects and common items that often go unnoticed in our daily lives. Through this photograph from Science Photo Library, we can appreciate not only the technological marvel behind sound reproduction but also gain insight into how communication has evolved over time.
