  1. 1. Investigations of the Transient Luminous Events with the small satellites, balloons and ground-based instruments

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik

    Author : Safura Mirzayeva; [2022]
    Keywords : TLE; sprite; jet; elve; halo; lightning; lighting detection; upper-atmospheric lightning; lightning location; nanosatellite; CubeSat;

    Abstract : The lightning is the natural source of electromagnetic radiation. It is an atmospheric electrical discharge.  However, since recent times, it was discovered that there are other types of lightning besides those that are visible to the naked eye. They are called TLEs (Transient Luminous Event) and take place above the clouds during thunderstorms. READ MORE

  4. 3. Analysis of simulation of lightning in a cold-based convective storm

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Linus Karlsson; [2018]
    Keywords : lightning; lightning flash; lightning discharge; cold-based convective cloud; convective cloud; microphysics; microphysical specie; cloud electrification; storm cell; convective storm cell; severe weather; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this paper a simulation of a convective cell of a thunderstorm system observed 19th of June 2000 during the Severe Thunderstorm Electrification and Precipitation Study (STEPS) field campaign is being analysed. The storm system has been simulated with an Aerosol-Cloud model and the analysis is based on the output data. READ MORE
