A new study identifies how water becomes ionized under electrochemical conditions. Hydrogen is expected to play a major role in future energy systems, which makes a clear understanding of electrolysis ...

Dive into the physics of electric fields with a focus on a charged ring off its axis! In this video, we explore how the electric field behaves at points not on the central axis, breaking down the ...

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 ...

New research shows that these fields speed up water dissociation not by lowering energy costs, but by increasing molecular disorder once ions form. The reaction becomes entropy-driven—exactly the ...
