A new study identifies how water becomes ionized under electrochemical conditions. Hydrogen is expected to play a major role ...

In the home, the lab and the factory, electric fields control technologies such as Kindle displays, medical diagnostic tests and devices that purify cancer drugs. In an electric field, anything with ...

NASA scientists have discovered an electric field encompassing Earth’s atmosphere that is as “fundamental” as gravity — and could even give clues about possible life on other planets. A team of NASA ...

Researchers have demonstrated an innovative method to control magnetism in materials using an energy-efficient electric field. The discovery focuses on materials known as magnetoelectrics, which offer ...

In this video, we use Gauss’s law to find the electric field of a uniformly charged sphere. We derive the field both inside and outside the sphere, explain the symmetry behind the Gaussian surface ...
