This is a preview for the new '''MathML rendering mode''' (with SVG fallback), which is availble in production for registered users.
A '''Taylor cone''' refers to the cone observed in [[electrospinning]], [[electrospray]]ing and hydrodynamic spray processes from which a jet of charged particles emanates above a threshold voltage. Aside from [[electrospray ionization]] in [[mass spectrometry]] the Taylor cone is important in [[FEEP]] and [[colloid thruster]]s used in fine control and high efficiency (low power) thrust of spacecraft.

:<math forcemathmode="mathml">E=mc^2</math>
When a small volume of electrically conductive liquid is exposed to an electric field, the shape of liquid starts to deform from the shape caused by surface tension alone. As the voltage is increased the effect of the electric field becomes more prominent and as it approaches exerting a similar amount of force on the droplet as the surface tension does a cone shape begins to form with convex sides and a rounded tip. This approaches the shape of a [[Cone (geometry)|cone]] with a whole angle (width) of 98.6°<ref>{{cite journal | author = Sir Geoffrey Taylor | year = 1964 | title = Disintegration of Water Droplets in an Electric Field | journal = [[Proceedings_of_the_Royal_Society_A#Proceedings_of_the_Royal_Society_A|Proc.

When a certain threshold voltage has been reached the slightly rounded tip inverts and emits a jet of liquid. This is called a cone-jet and is the beginning of the [[electrospray]]ing process in which ions may be transferred to the gas phase. It is generally found that in order to achieve a stable cone-jet a slightly higher than threshold voltage must be used. As the voltage is increased even more other modes of droplet disintegration are found. The term Taylor cone can specifically refer to the theoretical limit of a perfect cone of exactly  the predicted angle or generally refer to the approximately conical portion of a cone-jet after the electrospraying process has begun.

<!--'''PNG'''  (currently default in production)

Sir [[Geoffrey Ingram Taylor]] in 1964 described this phenomenon, theoretically derived based on general assumptions that the requirements to form a perfect cone under such conditions required a semi-vertical angle of 49.3° (a whole angle of 98.6°) and demonstrated that the shape of such a cone approached the theoretical shape just before jet formation.  This angle is known as the '''Taylor angle'''.  This angle is more precisely <math>\pi-\theta _0\,</math> where <math>\theta _0\,</math> is the first zero of <math>P _{1/2} (\cos\theta _0)\,</math> (the [[Legendre polynomial]] of order 1/2).

Taylor's derivation is based on two assumptions: (1) that the surface of the cone is an equipotential surface and (2) that the cone exists in a steady state equilibrium. To meet both of these criteria the electric field must have [[azimuth]]al symmetry and have <math>\sqrt{R}\,</math> dependence to counter the surface tension to produce the cone. The solution to this problem is:
