'travelling wave; stray wave; traveling wave; migratory wave moment(um)' aren't excluded either (I just heard the expression in the headline from the experts in the field, by the weren't native speakers).

agree  Lanna Rustage: I agree, from my physics degree, I dont see how a wave has a moment, but it does have both energy and momentum. Its a travelling wave, certainly not a stray wave.

Olga: No del todo. En la descripción de una onda no participa solamente la configuración en un momento dado, sino en varios momentos; porque se trata de una configuración viajera.

Vanesa: Y, ¿cómo se origina esa configuración viajera?

Olga: Situado en un punto del espacio un individuo puede producir en cada momento una etapa diferente de la configuración. Es decir, elaborar una cronología de la configuración.
