Researchers have found that besides sharks, bees and platypus, even fruit fly larvae can sense electric fields and navigate toward the negative electric potential using a small set of sensory ...

Doctors at one of England’s leading cancer hospitals have launched a clinical trial of headgear that emits electric fields. The pulses disrupt cell division in glioblastoma – one of the ...

Sharks, bees and even the platypus all share this ability to detect electric fields in their environment. While it may be an unfamiliar sensation to humans, electroreception is relatively ...

The EDS uses electrodes and electric fields to remove dust from the surface of objects. It was developed at Kennedy Space Center in Florida using funding from NASA's Game Changing Development Program.

Electric propulsion is being increasingly used ... probe visit dwarf planet Ceres The energy for the electromagnetic fields is often provided by solar arrays, and hence the technology is sometimes ...

Rare earth elements used in smartphones and electric vehicles could be extracted from the ground more sustainably using electric fields. Today, most rare earth metals used in electronics are mined ...

Novocure has cleared a phase 3 clinical study in pancreatic cancer, showing its tumor-treating electric fields could help against the notoriously recalcitrant disease. The company’s wearable ...

These effects, resulting from the electric fields produced by neurons rather than their synaptic firings, may play a leading role in our mind’s workings. In 1943 American scientists first ...

It’s also generated unlike other electric fields on Earth. This newly discovered aspect of our planet provides clues about the evolution of our atmosphere, perhaps explaining why Earth is habitable.

This makes it extremely challenging to visualize and precisely measure physical quantities like electric and magnetic fields emerging from atoms. To sense such weak fields from a single atom, the ...

Yet for Zaachariaha Fielding and Michael Ross, the duo that makes up Electric Fields, it’s far from a sad ending: We’re still buzzing. We feel like we did a killer performance and we felt like ...

Fears of electric vehicle fires are blown out of proportion, but because EVs are heavier on average, they're safer for passengers but more dangerous for non-occupants, studies suggest. When you ...
