It turns out the mysterious force is a previously undiscovered global electric field, a recent study found. The field is only ...

“This discovery of a New Force is fundamental in that electric fields alone can generate a sustainable force onto an object and allow center-of-mass translation of said object without expelling ...

During the latter part of the 20th century, string theory was put forward as a unifying theory of physics foundations. String ...

The mutual electric force between two charges is given by Coulomb ... This is termed as the principle of superposition. (i) Field lines start from positive charges and end at negative charges.

Researchers say they may have achieved Einstein's vision of a "unified field theory" that can unite two of nature's ...

Listen to the full series on BBC Sounds. Charge is a property of a body which experiences a force in an electric field. Charge is measured in coulombs (C). Since electrons are so small and one ...

Electric fields are characterized by their ability to exert force on charged molecules. Novocure founder Yoram Palti hypothesized that at particular frequencies and intensities, electric fields ...

Fruit flies are already famous in science. They’ve helped researchers make discoveries in genetics, aging, and brain function ...

The electric field also lifts heavier ions like oxygen ... Since the ambipolar field arises from internal dynamics—no outside force is needed—it should appear on any planet with a charged ...
