Terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs) are high-energy emissions in thunderstorms that were
discovered first by satellite-based and then by ground-based gamma-ray detectors with …

Atmospheric electricity is composed of a series of electric phenomena in the atmosphere.
Significant advances in atmospheric electricity research conducted in China have been …

Abstract Narrow Bipolar Events (NBEs) are powerful radio emissions from thunderstorms,
which have been recently associated with blue optical flashes on cloud tops and attributed …

This study investigates the relationship between transient luminous events (TLEs) and
lightning strokes, and the characteristics of TLE‐producing thunderstorms over the Tibetan …

Blue electric streamer discharges in the upper reaches of thunderclouds are observed as
flashes of 337.0 nm (blue) with faint or no emissions of 777.4 nm (red). Analyzing 3 years of …

Blue corona discharges are often generated in thunderclouds penetrating into the
stratosphere and are the optical manifestation of narrow bipolar events (NBEs) observed in …

Blue corona discharges are often observed at the top of thunderclouds. They are bursts of
streamers, but the cloud conditions that enable them are not well known. Here we present …

How lightning initiates inside thunderclouds remains a major puzzle of atmospheric
electricity. By monitoring optical emissions from thunderstorms, the Atmosphere‐Space …

Abstract The ILAN-ES (Imaging of Lightning And Nocturnal Emissions from Space)
experiment was conducted by Israeli astronaut Eytan Stibbe in April 2022 as part of the …

Calibrated measurements of lightning optical emissions are critical for both quantifying the
impacts of lightning in our atmosphere and devising detection instruments with sufficient …
