Put the rubbed surface of the balloon against a wall - the electrostatic force should keep it there. If not then charge it more by rubbing it on your hair or jumper and then try again. Measure the ...

This new propulsion system could rewrite the rules of spaceflight—not to mention completely defy conventional physics.

Could a reactionless, gravity-defying propulsion system actually work? A former NASA engineer says yes, but scientists are skeptical.

As we may have to wait some time for the experimental solution of Lord Kelvin's very instructive and suggestive problem concerning two pairs of spheres charged with electricity (see NATURE of ...

Dr Charles Buhler has been the lead NASA scientist on Electrostatics. An experiment last month was sent to the moon and ...

What is Electrostatic Force Microscopy? Electrostatic Force Microscopy (EFM) is a scanning probe microscopy technique that measures the electrostatic interactions between a conductive probe and a ...

They identified electrostatic forces that support this ... where some affected individuals experience fractures with minimal force, while others display few or no symptoms. Deciphering the ...

We investigate the domain of electrostatic dust charging at variable pressures for applications to dusty plasmas in various industries including space sciences and semiconductor manufacturing. Dr.

Hydrogen atoms are the only system in physics that is exactly ... The reason is the attractive nuclear force which is much stronger than electrostatic repulsive force. Similarly, the women living ...
