Engineers have developed a method for measuring the electrical potentials of molecules and molecular surfaces with previously unattainable precision and speed. They have, for the first time, succeeded ...

Researchers found that myelin, the sheath around neurons, creates a coaxial cable producing multiple waves of electrical potentials traveling in a more complicated manner than was envisioned earlier.

Researchers from the Netherlands Institute for Neuroscience (NIN) used a new technique to show how electrical impulses are traveling with high speed in the brain. It appears that myelin, the sheath ...

In this article we study the inverse boundary value problem for Maxwell's equation; that is, we determine the scalar permeability, permissibility, and conductivity of a body from electromagnetic field ...

The Aharonov-Bohm effect occupies a pivotal position in modern quantum theory, demonstrating that charged particles are influenced by electromagnetic potentials even in regions where the associated ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Researchers commonly study brain function by monitoring two types of electromagnetism -- electric fields and light. However, most methods for measuring these phenomena in the brain ...

Each heartbeat and bioelectro-signal are instigated by an electrical impulse that traverses the cardiac musculature in a meticulously orchestrated sequence. Cardiac electrophysiology delves into the ...

Established in 1926, Plant Physiology is an international journal devoted to physiology, biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology, genetics, biophysics, and environmental biology of plants. Plant ...

Your nerves transmit messages within the brain, as well as among the brain, spinal cord, and the body. In order to do this, they use a combination of electrical and chemical signaling. Motor neurons ...
