Propagation of positive, negative, and recoil leaders in upward lightning flashes
Earth and Planetary Physics, 2019 Leader propagation is a fundamental issue in lightning physics. The propagation characteristics of positive leaders and negative leaders are summarized and compared based on data from high-speed camera and electromagnetic field in rocket-triggered ...

Estimation of input energy in rocket‐triggered lightning [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2006 Electric fields in the immediate vicinity (within 0.1 to 1.6 m) of the triggered‐lightning channel were measured with Pockels sensors at the International Center for Lightning Research and Testing at Camp Blanding, Florida. These fields and the associated currents measured at the base of a 2‐m strike object were used to compute the input power and ...

Return stroke current reflections in rocket‐triggered lightning [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2016 AbstractTen upward propagating return stroke currents in eight triggered lightning flashes have been observed to reflect downward from 140 to 300 m altitude by way of measurements of the channel base current, close electric field and electric field derivative, and high‐speed video.

Wave Profile for Anti-force Waves with Maximum Possible Currents [PDF]
, 2015 In the theoretical investigation of the electrical breakdown of a gas, we apply a one-dimensional, steady state, constant velocity, three component fluid model and consider the electrons to be the main element in propagation of the wave. The electron gas

Wave Profile for Breakdown Waves with a Large Current Behind the Wave Front [PDF]
, 2017 For analytical solution of breakdown waves with a large current behind the wave front, we employ a one-dimensional, steady-state, three-component (electrons, ions, and neutral particles) fluid model.
