After all, it cannot be necessary that a student be taken through all the experiences possible; apart from training his hands, the purpose of laboratory work should be to give him faith in the ...

In this work, we collaborate with colleagues conducting experiments on electric propulsion thrusters in academia, in government laboratories (AFRL, NASA), and in industry. Ubiquitous in the field of ...

then validate it in a unique experiment that will help predict the lifespan of electric thrusters. "We can simulate the damage to the engine caused by sputtering, but until now, we could not ...

What ACME is looking for (along with a bunch of other experiments) is an "electric dipole" interaction, which has a mix of the characteristics of the other two. Like the electric monopole ...

The design is based on the electrocaloric effect, in which an electric field causes a temporary change in a material’s temperature. In lab experiments, the researchers found that the prototype ...
