Many technologies rely on electric discharge phenomena, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and high-voltage power systems. During product development, it is highly beneficial to simulate ...

Scientists have detected what they believe to be lightning on Mars by eavesdropping on the whirling wind recorded by NASA's Perseverance rover. A team of researchers has made significant strides in ...

A fleet of electric-powered school buses in El Cajon can send electricity back to California’s grid, thanks to first-of-its kind technology developed by a local company and a partnership with San ...

Tree leaves are found to emit tiny electrical sparks during thunderstorms, reshaping how we understand forest and storm ...

Tomsk Polytechnic University and TVEL have launched a project to use electric discharges to speed up the decontamination of radioactive concrete. The aim is to allow decontamination of several square ...

Underwater electrical discharges provide a compelling method for generating intense shock waves and complex fluid dynamics in aquatic environments. These processes occur when high-voltage electrical ...

A recent study has found that the electricity produced by an electric eel’s discharge is strong enough to cause the transfer of genetic material from the environment into the cells of nearby animals.
