YPlasma has developed a new solid-state cooling solution that uses corona discharge to generate airflow without any moving ...

THE luminosity produced by an electric current passing through a gas at low pressure varies greatly in character, not only when we alter the nature of the discharge, as, for example, when we pass from ...

DR. CLIFFORD C. PATERSON, director of the Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company, Ltd., has written an interesting review of the technical progress made last year in the development of ...

The desktop manufacturing revolution has been incredible, unleashing powerful technologies that once were strictly confined to industrial and institutional users. If you doubt that, just look at 3D ...

Many technologies rely on electric discharge phenomena, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and high-voltage power systems. During product development, it is highly beneficial to simulate ...

A recent study has found that the electricity produced by an electric eel’s discharge is strong enough to cause the transfer of genetic material from the environment into the cells of nearby animals.

In the lab, researchers regularly use electricity to deposit medicine, DNA, bacteria or other substances into cells. This process is known as electroporation, and it works by creating temporary ...

The electric eel is the biggest power-making creature on Earth. It can release up to 860 volts, which is enough to run a machine. In a recent study, a research group from Nagoya University in Japan ...

In something straight out of a comic book, electric eels may be able to shoot DNA into other animals when they zap them with electricity. The electric eel can release up to 860 volts of electricity, ...

Sebastian Deffner is affiliated with the Department of Physics at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC). Static electricity is a ubiquitous part of everyday life. It’s all around us, ...
