Helmholtz resonance, named after the German physicist Hermann von Helmholtz, refers to a phenomenon related to the resonant frequency of a cavity and its connection to the surrounding air. It typically arises in systems where a gas-filled cavity (such as a bottle or a hollow object) has a neck or opening that allows air to flow in and out. In simple terms, a Helmholtz resonator can be visualized as a container of air with an opening.
