A juvenile brown ghost knifefish The rivers of the tropical Americas hum and crackle with electric fields generated by knifefish. The fish use electric discharges to search their murky ...

Versatile applications. The discovery of the new vortex electric field in the twisted bilayer has also created a 2D quasicrystal, potentially enhancing future electronic, magnetic and optical ...

Two major global energy fields are known to exist around Earth – the gravity field, generated by the planet’s mass, and the electromagnetic field, which is produced by churning metals in the core.

A team of researchers claims to have shown that a high-voltage electric field generated using wind and rain can boost crop yield, but other scientists say the results should be treated with caution.

A new study is shedding light on why solar radiation is more effective than other forms of energy at causing water to ...

Flowers offer all sorts of cues to their pollinators—colors, patterns, shapes, and scents all help plants communicate with butterflies, bats, birds, and bees. But recent research suggests that ...

A weak electrical field generated on the subatomic scale was hypothesized to be the driver, named the ambipolar electric field. This was unproven to exist, until now.

This field is generated on a subatomic scale around 150 miles above the surface where atoms in the atmosphere begin to break apart into negatively charged electrons and positively charged ions.
