Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have found that applying an electric field to a specialized ceramic can nearly ...

Scientists in the United States have discovered an electric field method to improve heat ...

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 ...

An electric charge (like a proton) creates an electric field in the region around it. This field points away from positive charges and decreases in strength as it gets farther away from the charge.

By influencing how phonons travel through a crystal lattice, an electric field can begin shaping both the speed and direction of heat transport.

For the first time, scientists have measured a long-sought global electric field in the Earth’s atmosphere. This field, called the ambipolar electric field, was predicted to exist decades ago but ...
