An analysis of ELF sferics produced by rocket-triggered lightning

2014 XXXIth URSI General Assembly and Scientific Symposium (URSI GASS), 2014
Lightning regularly generates ELF radio atmospherics (sferics) in the 5–500 Hz frequency range. The processes that produce ELF sferics have been studied for more than 50 years. Rocket-triggered lightning experiments at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing (ICLRT) located at Camp Blanding, Florida provide a unique data set for ...

Rocket-triggered lightning studies for the protection of critical assets

Conference Record Industrial and Commercial Power Systems Technical Conference 1993, 1993
Lightning protection systems (LPSs) for explosives handling and storage facilities have long been designed similarly to those used for more conventional facilities, but their overall effectiveness in controlling interior electromagnetic (EM) environments has still not been rigorously assessed.

Rocket-triggered lightning: Modeling of trigger-wire corona effects

2010 30th International Conference on Lightning Protection (ICLP), 2010
For the first time, a model gives due consideration to the effect of space charge produced by trigger-wire glow-corona on continuous upward leader onset, in rocket triggered lightning under negative cloud.

An experimental study of positive leaders initiating rocket-triggered lightning

Atmospheric Research, 1999
Abstract Simultaneous, co-located measurements of ambient, electrostatic-field profiles and rocket-triggered lightning phenomenology beneath Florida thunderstorms are reported. Ambient-field conditions that are sufficient to initiate and sustain the propagation of positive lightning leaders are identified.

Measured and Modeled Horizontal Electric Field From Rocket-Triggered Lightning

IEEE Transactions on Electromagnetic Compatibility, 2008
This paper presents the results of experiments carried out with rocket-triggered lightning and the related theoretical analysis. It describes the test setup and presents the electric field waveform recorded at the earth surface alongside with the simultaneous measurement of the lightning return stroke current at the channel base.

Modeling of Trigger-Wire Corona Effects in Rocket-Triggered Lightning

IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2011
This paper presents a model for the critical conditions required for a successful launch of rocket-triggered lightning of the classical type under negative cloud. For the first time, the model gives due consideration to the effect of space charge produced by trigger-wire glow-corona on continuous upward leader onset.
