Electrostatic discharges
Electrostatic discharges. Application to electronic industry and other domains

To understand electrostatic phenomena, we can look at the constitution of the atom as described in Bohr's model: a nucleus made up of protons and neutrons, around which electrons gravitate in several energy layers or bands. The electric charges carried by protons and electrons are identical in absolute value and opposite in sign. An atom can give up or acquire electrons under the effect of an external stimulus (mechanical, chemical, electrical, etc.) and thus...
