Rammstein concert “felt” even an earthquake sensor

The seismograph, which is located at the DESY research center in Hamburg, recorded a concert by the Rammstein group. This

The sensor was created to study particle physics. It is interesting that he “saw” not the sound, but the transverse vibrations of the soil. Discuss

DESY stands for DeutschesElektronen-Synchrotron is a German electronic synchrotron. A scientific instrument was actually designed to withstand a variety of noises. Next to the center is the Volksparkstadion, where concerts are held.

June 17, 2022 DESY official accountpublished an image of the seismometer readings serving the PETRA III X-ray source. An abnormally large and noisy peak was visible there. It coincided with the Rammstein concert.

This seismograph captures transverse vibrationssoil. Most likely, they were created by a crowd of people at a concert who were jumping and dancing. Explosions of pyrotechnics could also affect. Scientists, however, did not complain, but simply shared a curious fact.
