Lightning initiation: Strong pulses of VHF radiation accompany preliminary breakdown
Abstract We analyze lightning initiation process using magnetic field waveforms of preliminary breakdown (PB) pulses observed at time scales of a few tens of microseconds by a broad-band receiver. We compare these pulses with sources of narrow-band very high frequency (VHF) radiation at 60–66 MHz re...
