Possible catalytic effects of ice particles on the production of NO<sub>x</sub> by lightning discharges
It is well known that lightning produces NO<sub>x</sub> as a result of the high temperatures in discharge channels. Since most viable proposed electrification mechanisms involve ice crystals, it is reasonable to assume that lightning discharge channels frequently pass through fields of i...
