- Electricity [r]: The flow or presence of electric charge; the flow of electricity is an important carrier of energy. [e]
- Electromagnetic wave [r]: A change, periodic in space and time, of an electric field E(r,t) and a magnetic field B(r,t); a stream of electromagnetic waves, referred to as electromagnetic radiation, can be seen as a stream of massless elementary particles, named photons. [e]
