The conference is organised by the Electrostatics Group and the Institute of Physics and continues the International Conference series on Electrostatics which takes place in the United Kingdom every four years. Static electricity is one of the oldest known physical phenomena and it has been studied since the time of the ancient Greeks. The subject remains one of great importance into the 21st Century. Indeed, research into MEMS, various aspects of bio-electrostatics and environmental electrostatics are becoming increasingly important, while ESD and electrostatic hazards continue to be major commercial and industrial issues.

The scope of the conference is broad, covering general electrostatics and a range of specialist topics relevant to current research and industrial concerns. Electrostatics 2007 will bring together experts from academia, research laboratories and industry. You will be ensured of a warm welcome to Electrostatics 2007 in the vibrant and historic city of Oxford, with its long and renowned reputation for academic excellence.
