Could detecting static electricity be a factor in explaining why treehopper insects have evolved such bizarre body shapes? That is the hypothesis put forward in a new research paper published in ...

There's a reason you may notice it more in the winter. Excess static electricity is always a shock to the system—literally—but if you're experiencing shocks more so than not, annoying is an ...

New research shows that ticks can use static electricity to latch onto people or animals. The study in the journal Current Biology says the static charge given off by potential hosts can attract ticks ...

Static electricity—specifically the triboelectric effect, aka contact electrification—is ubiquitous in our daily lives, found in such things as a balloon rubbed against one's hair or styrofoam packing ...

That is the hypothesis put forward in a new research paper published in PNAS by Dr Sam England, who completed his PhD at Bristol in 2023, and Professor Daniel Robert, Professor of Bionanoscience at ...
