In the Los Angeles-based artist Shana Lutker's work, objects placed in proximity to one another — typically through sculpture, installation, performance and text — create conversations.

In the lab, however, Mr. Kapono has found evidence for the transfer of resistance genes from bacteria in the ocean into strains associated with the human gut when they are placed in proximity.

Although it's described as one exhibition with one title, Unseen functions more like two solo shows, since the work of the two artists are not placed in proximity, but installed in separate, side-by-side galleries.

If a proper call is produced while the two species are placed in proximity, mating will occur with fertile offspring resulting. This is thought to be the early stages of species divergence in progress.

Alternatively, because tea easily retains odours, it can be placed in proximity to an aromatic ingredient to absorb its aroma, as in traditional jasmine tea.Gong, Wen. Lifestyle in China. 五洲传播出版社, 2007.

Amos 2 and Amos 3 are placed in proximity to create common location, which enables to satellite users to increase user abilities without additional antennas. In April 2017, Amos Spacecom announced that AMOS-2 has reached the end of its commercial life, and is being cleared from the GEO orbit to the graveyard orbit.

Philadelphia's 1876 Centennial Exhibition, pp. 29–30 Offices for foreign commissioners were placed in proximity to the products exhibited along in the aisles along the sides of the building. The walkways leading to the exit doors were ten feet wide. After the Exposition, the structure was turned into a permanent building for the International Exhibition.

If the hydraulic pump or hydraulic motor makes use of the hydrodynamic effects of the fluid flow, i.e. pressure due to a change in the fluid's momentum as it flows through vanes in a turbine. The pump and motor usually consist of rotating vanes without seals and are typically placed in proximity. The transmission ratio can be made to vary by means of additional rotating vanes, an effect similar to varying the pitch of an airplane propeller.

X-ray lithography originated as a candidate for next-generation lithography for the semiconductor industry, with batches of microprocessors successfully produced. Having short wavelengths (below 1 nm), X-rays overcome the diffraction limits of optical lithography, allowing smaller feature sizes. If the X-ray source isn't collimated, as with a synchrotron radiation, elementary collimating mirrors or diffractive lenses are used in the place of the refractive lenses used in optics. The X-rays illuminate a mask placed in proximity of a resist-coated wafer.

The current flowing the workpiece produces a corresponding opposite magnetic field which rapidly repels the workpiece from the forming coil, reshaping the workpiece — in this case, compressing the diameter of the cylindrical tube. The reciprocal forces acting against the forming coil are resisted by the 'supportive coil casing (green). In practice the metal workpiece to be fabricated is placed in proximity to a heavily constructed coil of wire (called the work coil). A huge pulse of current is forced through the work coil by rapidly discharging a high-voltage capacitor bank using an ignitron or a spark gap as a switch.

Agriculturist Ralph Exon has created a new strain of Soya Bean plant, (dubbed "The Exon Strain") in an effort to alleviate famine in the Third world. The plant is remarkably hardy and efficient - growing over two feet in the space of half an hour under almost any conditions. However, it has an unexpected side effect and produces oxygen at vastly increased levels, so much so that when placed in proximity to a naked flame it causes uncontrollable fires that are at first mistaken for incendiary devices by the police and fire brigade. The Exon strain has been created in laboratory conditions but due to emergency venting of the biodome, they have escaped into the countryside where birds have propagated them around the country.

Ion-beam shepherd (IBS) deorbiting a space debris An ion-beam shepherd (IBS) is a concept in which the orbit and/or attitude of a spacecraft or a generic orbiting body is modified by having a beam of quasi-neutral plasma impinging against its surface to create a force and/or a torque on the target. Ion and plasma thrusters commonly used to propel spacecraft can be employed to produce a collimated plasma/ion beam and point it towards the body. The fact that the beam can be generated on a "shepherd" spacecraft placed in proximity of the target without physical attachment with the latter provides an interesting solution for space applications such as space debris removal, asteroid deflection and space transportation in general. The Technical University of Madrid (UPM) is exploring this conceptC.
