  2. Field-reversed configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field-reversed_configuration

    The first studies were at the United States Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) in the 1960s. Considerable data were collected, with over 600 published papers. [ 5 ] Almost all research was conducted during Project Sherwood at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) from 1975 to 1990, [ 6 ] and during 18 years at the Redmond Plasma Physics Laboratory ...

  3. Hollow Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_Earth

    The Hollow Earth is an obsolete concept proposing that the planet Earth is entirely hollow or contains a substantial interior space. Notably suggested by Edmond Halley in the late 17th century, the notion was disproven, first tentatively by Pierre Bouguer in 1740, then definitively by Charles Hutton in his Schiehallion experiment around 1774.

  4. Bouncing ball - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bouncing_ball

    The physics of a bouncing ball concerns the physical behaviour of bouncing balls, particularly its motion before, during, and after impact against the surface of another body. Several aspects of a bouncing ball's behaviour serve as an introduction to mechanics in high school or undergraduate level physics courses.

  5. Telluric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telluric_current

    In industrial prospecting activity that uses the telluric current method, electrodes are properly located on the ground to sense the voltage difference between locations caused by the oscillatory telluric currents. [7] [8] It is recognized that a low frequency window (LFW) exists when telluric currents pass through the Earth's substrata.

  6. Faraday's ice pail experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_ice_pail_experiment

    The container is discharged by connecting it briefly to a large conducting object, called a ground (earth); this can be done by touching it with a finger, using the conductive human body as a ground. Any initial charge drains off into the ground. The charge detector reads zero, indicating that the container has no charge.

  7. PhET Interactive Simulations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhET_Interactive_Simulations

    PhET Interactive Simulations is part of the University of Colorado Boulder which is a member of the Association of American Universities. [10] The team changes over time and has about 16 members consisting of professors, post-doctoral students, researchers, education specialists, software engineers (sometimes contractors), educators, and administrative assistants.

  8. Sanford Underground Research Facility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanford_Underground...

    The deepest underground laboratory in the United States, it houses multiple experiments in areas such as dark matter and neutrino physics research, biology, geology and engineering. There are currently 28 active research projects housed within the facility. Sanford Lab is managed by the South Dakota Science and Technology Authority (SDSTA).

  9. Hollow Moon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_Moon

    While Hollow Moon hypotheses usually propose the hollow space as the result of natural processes, the related Spaceship Moon hypothesis [1] [2] holds that the Moon is an artifact created by an alien civilization; [1] [2] this belief usually coincides with beliefs in UFOs or ancient astronauts.
