Recent experiments (F.H.J. Van Der Heyden et al., PRL 96, 224502 (2006)) of streaming currents in silica nanochannels with divalent ions report charge inversion, i.e. interfacial charges attracting counterions in excess of their own nominal…
Charging of upper and lower horizontal boundaries of extensive layer clouds results from current flow in the global electric circuit. Layer-cloud charge accumulation has previously been considered a solely electrostatic phenomenon, but it…
