Magnetic fields in this swirling mass are twisted into a kind of "magnetic spaghetti, " and electrically charged particles squirt out through this spaghetti at nearly the speed of light, blasting out into the universe across thousands of light-years.
Ion channels sit in a cell's outer membrane and let electrically charged atoms (ions, as they are known in chemical jargon) in and out of the cell.
About 60 to 200 miles overhead, the particles bump into the Earth's atmosphere and become electrically "excited" -- throwing off light of various colors, said Prof.
It is electrically and thermally conductive, is strong and is transparent.
The mighty 12 is backed up by an eight-speed transmission and Audi's Quattro all-wheel drive system (with electrically locking front and rear differentials, no less).
And since hydrogen is electrically neutral, it should be possible to observe gravity's tiny tug on it without the confounding effects of electrostatic attraction to other particles.
From my cosy cocoon, I heard the call and response of birds zipping electrically through the night air, the staccato rhythm of galloping hooves, the whoop of hyenas stalking fresh meat.
Access to Bachelor Lake has not been a problem as highway 113 leads to the mine uninterrupted and the area is also electrically sound with hydro-electric power lines along the way.
FORBES: Plan Nord: Metanor To Begin Commercial Gold Production in Q3 2012
The passive feature means they rely less on electrically driven pumps and valves, for safety, and more on systems designed to shut down plants safely in emergencies and to prevent operator error.
The natural phenomenon can be seen in the northernmost regions of the world, including Norway, Iceland, Greenland and Alaska, and is the result of electrically charged particles colliding in the Earth's atmosphere.
It had two styli connected to pendulums joined to a wire and could reproduce writing on an electrically conductive surface.
Yes, it does have an electrically assisted rack-and-pinion steering, and no, the steering isn't the telepathic rudder that the Porsche 911's is, but still, it's pretty awesome.

In the second mode of working, the crystal fibre uses the regular array of holes to influence light in much the same way as the arrangement of atoms in a crystal can determine whether electrons are able to travel easily through it and hence whether the crystal is electrically conducting or not.
It involves spraying a tiny (0.15x0.15mm) area of a fingerprint with an electrically charged mixture of methanol and water.
With CES looming like an electrically charged storm of news and announcements, it's time for us to give you our best bets on what you'll see come January.
Every time the enzyme connects two bases--an A to a T or a C to a G--an electrically charged ion is released and detected by sensors on the machine.
As I mentioned antenna design engineers have gotten very good at what they do but since each antenna must be electrically matched to the transmitter and receivers, it has to have certain characteristics that differ from the antenna for a different portion of the spectrum.
Researchers at the University of Arizona and Nitto Denko Technical used a blend of electrically responsive light-scattering polymers to make a holographic videoconferencing system.

Even those jobs that demand physical labor -- manufacturing, for example -- are much less grueling than they used to be, as electrically powered machines do the lifting and shifting that used to consume human energy.
Chevy's Volt and Nissan's Leaf are the high-profile, well-received electrically charged headline grabbers, but Ford has also arrived with critically acclaimed hybrid versions of its Escape SUV and Fusion sedan.
The tables are electrically deployed from special BRABUS seatback consoles and are infinitely adjustable to any angle.
The gel is then connected into an electrical circuit and the current carries the molecules (which are electrically charged) along.
This means that smart has one of the largest fleets of electrically driven vehicles on the roads worldwide and a trove of customer experience and wishes that have been input in the third generation smart fortwo electric drive.

These craft will study the interaction between the solar wind (the breeze of electrically charged particles emitted by the sun) and the earth's magnetic field.
Patients who received the device were already being treated with the best doctors have to offer heart-failure patients--including an arsenal of drugs and devices that reset the heart's internal timers electrically.
Nerve cells transmit their signals using electrically charged atoms (called ions) of sodium and potassium, which work rather like electrons in a metal wire.
Each bead is doped with a mixture of chemicals that become electrically charged in response to odour molecules and that charge alters the colour of the dye.
