Higher energy states are then similar to harmonics of the fundamental frequency.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The untrained human ear typically does not perceive harmonics as separate notes.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A flared instrument has louder higher-frequency harmonics than a cylindrical one.

A twelve tone scale can also be created by compounding harmonics up to the fifth.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A cracked mug will work, but the fundamental pitch is clouded by messy harmonics.

We have measured strong harmonics at 470, 700, 940, 1171, 1400 and 1630 hertz.

The end of the century also saw a very detailed discussion of spherical harmonics.

- Of or relating to harmony as distinct from melody and rhythm; "subtleties of harmonic change and tonality"- Ralph Hill
- A tone that is a component of a complex sound
- Any of a series of musical tones whose frequencies are integral multiples of the frequency of a fundamental
- Of or relating to the branch of acoustics that studies the composition of musical sounds; "the sound of the resonating cavity cannot be the only determinant of the harmonic response"
- Relating to vibrations that occur as a result of vibrations in a nearby body; "sympathetic vibration"
- Consonant: involving or characterized by harmony
- A harmonic of a wave is a component frequency of the signal that is an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency, i.e. if the fundamental frequency is f, the harmonics have frequencies 2f, 3f, 4f, . . . etc. ...
- Colors or hues are said to be harmonic if their spacing on the color wheel meets certain criteria. Harmonic colors are said to be color coordinated, and work well together in principles of design and art.
- Harmonics are electric voltages and currents that appear on the electric power system as a result of certain kinds of electric loads. Harmonic frequencies in the power grid are a frequent cause of power quality problems.
