New research shows that these fields speed up water dissociation not by lowering energy costs, but by increasing molecular disorder once ions form. The reaction becomes entropy-driven—exactly the ...

As the Parker Solar Probe ventures closer to the sun, we are learning new things about our home star. In a new study, physicists led by the University of Iowa report the first definitive measurements ...

Field Electric specializes in residential and commercial solar panels, generators and electrical services. It offers products from Briggs & Stratton, Champion Power Equipment, Generac Power Systems ...

Invisibly to us, insects and other tiny creatures use static electricity to travel, avoid predators, collect pollen and more. New experiments explore how evolution may have influenced this phenomenon.

An international team of scientists at NASA and other institutions say they’ve discovered a weak, planet-wide electric field wrapping the Earth that was first hypothesized by researchers decades ago.

Scientists have developed artificial heterostructures made of freestanding 2D and 3D membranes that have an energy density up to 19 times higher than commercially available capacitors. Electrostatic ...
