Lightning and lightning protection on distribution systems
Electrical Engineering, 1940THE CONCEPTIONS of lightning and of lightning discharge currents through arresters have been altered and enlarged by recent studies. Until not long ago the most complete information available on the magnitude and wave shape of lightning surges on electric systems has been that obtained by the cathode-ray oscillograph investigations of lightning ...

The physical properties of lightning are given, including a description of the different observed lightning forms. The wide variety of effects of lightning on humans is reviewed. In the prehospital care of those struck by lightning, emphasis is upon immediate resuscitation of those who appear unresponsive.

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1977
The course of three patients apparently struck by lightning is reviewed. The circumstances of the injury and the power of the lightning discharge are uncontrollable variables affecting morbidity and mortality. Immediate cardiopulmonary resuscitation followed by careful clinical monitoring and aggressive treatment of involved organ systems will help ...

A terrestrial gamma-ray flash and ionospheric ultraviolet emissions powered by lightning
Science, 2019Gamma-ray flash from a lightning leader Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are millisecond pulses of gamma rays produced by thunderstorms. Neubert et al. observed a TGF from above, using instruments on the International Space Station.

Abstract Lightning is one of nature’s powerful traumatic forces. Cloud-to-ground lightning flashes have peak currents of 20,000 to 40,000 amps at hundreds of millions of volts and can reach temperatures as high as 60,0000F. Researchers in the early twentyfirst century have provided evidence that lightning is associated with the intense ...
