Low-pressure electrical discharge experiment to simulate high-altitude lightning above thunderclouds [PDF]

, 1995
Recently, extremely interesting high-altitude cloud-ionosphere electrical discharges, like lightning above thunderstorms, have been observed from NASA's space shuttle missions and during airborne and ground-based experiments.

3D Computation of Lightning Leader Stepped Propagation Inside a Realistic Cloud

Comptes Rendus. Physique
The simulation of lightning propagation is a complex problem studied for years. Here we propose to use the information from the electric potential created from a real cloud structure to study the propagation.

Traversing inward: faith healing through oral traditions in select texts of Easterine Kire and Leslie Marmon Silko

Cogent Arts & Humanities
This essay examines faith healing in the select texts of Easterine Kire’s Son of the Thundercloud (2016) and Leslie Marmon Silko’s Ceremony (2016) as a spiritual and ecological practice that extends beyond the biomedical paradigm of healing. By analyzing

The high frequency magnetic field measurements from ~5 kHz–40 MHz near Rustrel (RST) show that the second positive lightning discharge (upper panel) exhibits resonant type oscillations with a period of ~3.8 μs (~260 kHz) lasting for ~9 cycles over ~34.2 μs (lower panel) attributed to a bouncing-wave discharge

Influence of ion attachment on the vertical distribution of the electric field and charge density below a thunderstorm

Annales Geophysicae
A numerical model called PICASSO [Production d'Ions Corona Au Sol Sous Orage (French) and Production of Corona Ions at the Ground Beneath Thundercloud (English)], previously designed, is used to describe the evolution of the principal electrical ...

POTENTIAL GRADIENT AND RADAR ECHOS FROM AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM [PDF]

, 1967
It was found by the simultaneous observations of the surface potential gradients and the radar echos from an isolated thundercloud that.the positiveward excursion of the gradient in the middle of the electrical disturbance was almost exactly associated ...
