Acoustics of Organ Pipes
András Miklós is a physicist whose main interests are photoacoustics, musi- cal acoustics, and theoretical and solid- state acoustics. He was a senior scientist at the University of Heidelberg, Heidel- berg, Germany. He has been director of the Steinbeis Transfer Center Applied
Acoustics in Stuttgart, Germany, since 2003. Since 1986, he has carried out pipe organ research with Judit Angster and has taken part in the international advanced training courses at the Fraunhofer Institute of Building Physics IBP in Stuttgart, Germany.
