12.1 Electrostatics The Electrostatic Discharge Association is an organization focussing on advancing knowledge about electrostatic discharge and methods to avoid it. Their Electrostatic Discharge Primer describes the physics involved in generating an electrostatic charge. Newton BBS Page (432, #11 ) The Newton BBS is part of the US Department of Energy. Its Ask a Scientist service and archives have answers to just about every question in the sciences. Click on the Search option then search for "Dryer static" to get an explanation on how anti-static sheets work. Xerography Page (432, #12 ) From the Archives of Useless Information a site produced by Steve Silverman, a brief explanation of xerography. The site is written in fun, easy to read language.

The EMF Safety SuperStore has produced this online Questions and Answers page about Electric and Magnetic Fields. Included are sections on general information, human health and biological studies etc Ichor Medical Systems Page (436, #10 ) Ichor Medical Systems describes the use of electric fields in Electroporation Therapy (EPT). The technique is used to induce a temporary increase in the permeability of cell membranes, thus improving the intracellular delivery of a variety of drugs and genes. This may have applications in the treatment of a variety of different diseases including cancer, anemia, hemophilia
From the University of Rochester, Professor Thomas B. Jones website of electrostatics demonstrations. The page outlines some practical applications of electrostatics in manufacturing and industry and includes a set of interactive pages used to supplement the demonstrations Uses for Static Electricity Page (469, #26 ) From the School for Champions online course, this page explains some useful applications of static electricity. It includes a mini-quiz at the end of the page.
