A new study is shedding light on why solar radiation is more effective than other forms of energy at causing water to evaporate. The key factor turns out to be the oscillating electric field inherent ...

The Endurance rocket was able to discover a force that had been theorized for decades which will help expand our knowledge of ...

This animation shows how the ambipolar electric field works. The most abundant gas in the lower atmosphere, the part we live in, is nitrogen (N2, shown around seven seconds).

For a hydrogen atom, the upward pull of this electric field is 10.6 times stronger than gravity pulling downward, said Alex Glocer, a NASA physicist and co-author of the study.

NASA scientists have discovered a third global energy field around Earth. Known as the ambipolar electric field, this force drives charged particles into space above the poles and joins the known ...

NASA scientists have discovered a planet-wide electric field surrounding Earth, confirming a 60-year-old hypothesis. Studying the field could yield some vital information about how our planet's ...

Using Eliashberg theory, the required electric field strength is quantified as approximately 10 8 V/m, matching experimental observations and enabling advances in superconducting electronics.

That electric field moved the rare earth elements toward the positively charged electrodes, concentrating them together. The elements could then be transferred to treatment ponds for additional ...

Electric fields can efficiently steer large-scale magnetic textures in the magnetoelectric material Cu 2 OSeO 3, enabling continuous reorientation of magnetic structures at low temperatures.
