Lightning discharges represent one of nature’s most dramatic electrical phenomena, providing a dynamic window into the complex interplay between atmospheric electrical fields and discharge processes.

At the center of this achievement is the Photoelectric Feedback Discharge model, a complex simulation tool created to describe how lightning arises from the frenzied interaction of fields and ...

Lightning sits at the boundary between routine weather and sudden hazard. It appears briefly, illuminates a landscape, and ...

Dental braces are mostly made of stainless steel, ceramic, or plastic. These materials are selected for their durability and ...

INTRODUCTION TO LIGHTNING: Lightning and thunderclouds -- The stepped leader -- The return stroke -- The dart leader -- More on strokes and flashes -- Intracloud discharges -- Strokes bringing ...

A new study led by researchers from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) has uncovered the first observational evidence of lateral negative re-discharges ...
