All Hail the Internet, All Hail Wikipedia
There is, naturally, a Wikipedia page entitled List of Ghostbusters Equipment. There we learn — and this is but one example — that an ecto-containment unit...
...was developed after Dr. Spengler and Dr. Stantz made their first actual contact with a ghost in the basement of the New York Public Library. According to data from that experience, they theorize that since a ghost's ionization rate is constant, they could capture and hold it indefinitely.I'm not sure whether it's more noteworthy that this information is readily available, or that I have a legitimate, work-related need for it.

Well, it is pretty much pulled verbatim from the movie...
Sure, but the fact that such verbatim bits have been pulled into the article from such a variety of Ghostbusters-related sources, and then re-organized and re-written into a legit-sounding encyclopedia entry, is kind of remarkable.
