Direct Non‐Thermal Corona Plasma Treatment in Air Pollution Control

open access: yesPlasma Processes and Polymers, EarlyView.
Explore the potential of direct non‐thermal corona plasma treatment in air pollution control. Many reactor design possibilities and development of highly efficient power supplies make this already well‐established technology an advancing solution for more and more challenges in sustainable environmental management.

Lightning Occurrence and Social Vulnerability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The occurrence of lightning in time and space around the world is well known. Lightning fatalities and injuries are well delineated in the United States; however, there is much less information about lightning impacts on people in the developing world ...

An Investigation of the Factors Affecting the Transition of Lightning Surges through Underground Cables and Sub-Transmission Substations: A case study [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Lightning is a natural phenomenon that takes place all around the world. The enormous amount of energy released by lightning is extremely ruinous, so some suitable protection schemes are required for power systems to minimize its destructive effects.

In-flight measurements of energetic radiation from lightning and thunderclouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In the certification procedure aircraft builders carry out so-called icing tests flights, where the zero degree Celsius altitude is deliberately sought and crossed in or under thunderstorms. Airbus also used these flights to test ILDAS, a system aimed to determine lightning severity and attachment points during flight from high speed data on the ...

Dynamic and statistical analysis of giant hail environments in northeast Italy

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The hailstorm of record‐breaking hail size that occurred on July 24, 2023 in NE Italy developed in an unusual environment, characterized by moderate instability but intense southwesterly flow and water‐vapor transport in the mid‐troposphere. A high‐Θe$$ {\varTheta}_{\mathrm{e}} $$ tongue over the Adriatic Sea was lifted above a cold pool and fed the ...

Evaluating lightning hazards to building environments using explicit numerical solutions of Maxwell's equations [PDF]

open access: yes
The objective here is to describe the lightning hazards to buildings and their internal environments using advanced formulations of Maxwell's Equations. The method described is the Three Dimensional Finite Difference Time Domain Solution.

Quantum Lightning Never Strikes the Same State Twice [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Public key quantum money can be seen as a version of the quantum no-cloning theorem that holds even when the quantum states can be verified by the adversary. In this work, investigate quantum lightning, a formalization of "collision-free quantum money" defined by Lutomirski et al.

A Strike from the Air: Cerebral Hemorrhage after a Lightning Strike

open access: yesIndian Journal of Neurosurgery
Lightning strikes pose a rare but catastrophic risk for a variety of injuries, including damage to the central nervous system. We present the case of a 79-year-old farmer who survived a lightning strike directly in the chest resulting in an intracerebral
