electrometer

Researchers into psychic matters believe that electric fields often accompany or are the cause of unusual phenomena .. For example, it has been conjectured that buildings having certain geometrical shapes, such as pyramids, have the ability to concentrate electric fields and thus preserve organic tissues (mummification). This claim seems partly to be borne out by recent experiments in the USSR, where strong electric fields have been used to preserve vegatables and sharpen razor-blades. It is also believed that electric fields accompany psychic manifestations. An instrument that will indicate the presence of , an electric field is thus of con- siderable use when investigating such phenomena, and this is what the electrometer is designed to do.
