Fermi GBM Observations of Terrestrial Gamma Flashes [PDF]
In its first two years of operation, the Fermi Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has observed more than 77 Terrestrial Gamma Flashes (TGFs). The thick Bismuth Germanate (BGO) detectors are excellent for TGF spectroscopy, having a high probability of ...

Organic Representation as a Critical Media Approach to Leadership Studies in Popular Culture
ABSTRACT This article applies the critical media concept of organic representation to leadership studies as an analytic of how various creators in popular culture today are not just writing inclusive storytelling but, more notably, modeling new modes of production and self‐presentation that are actively challenging hegemonic industry practices and ...

Shield to Pin Coupling of Lightning-Like Transients on Payload Umbilical Cables on a Launch Pad [PDF]
In this paper we describe in-situ testing of a long payload umbilical, on a launch site, injected with lightning- like transients and describe resulting pin-to-pin voltages.

LMA observation of upward flashes at Säntis Tower: preliminary result [PDF]
Lightning striking tall towers is mainly of the upward lightning type, which is characterized by the absence of a first return stroke and the presence of an initial continuous current (ICC) with or without superimposed pulses.

ABSTRACT With increasing demands for fire safety and environmental friendliness, retrofilling transformers with alternative insulating liquids has become a growing trend. However, retrofilling power transformers remains uncertain, as more residual mineral oil compromises K‐class flame retardancy, and its impact on environmental performance has yet to ...

Seasonal variation of transmission line outages in Peninsular Malaysia [PDF]
Researchers have observed the impact of climate changes on overhead line outages. It is known that overhead lines are very prone to lightning strikes due to their height and location which are normally in an open and exposed area.

Systematic deviations in source direction estimates of Q-bursts recorded at Nagycenk, Hungary [PDF]
Q-bursts are globally detectable extremely low frequency (ELF, 3-3000Hz) band wave packets produced by intense lightning discharges. Q-bursts recorded in the Széchenyi István Geophysical Observatory (NCK, 16.7°E, 47.6°N), Hungary, on 1 and 2 August 2012 ...

ABSTRACT Data from five rocket‐triggered lightning flashes are adopted to analyse the correlated transient response of buried cables and lightning channel radiations. These five flashes have the same termination point that is right above the buried cables and involve a total of 32 return strokes.

Lightning current waveform measuring system [PDF]
An apparatus is described for monitoring current waveforms produced by lightning strikes which generate currents in an elongated cable. These currents are converted to voltages and to light waves for being transmitted over an optical cable to a remote ...
