      Sarria, David Alexandre Stephan; Østgaard, Nikolai; Kochkin, Pavlo; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Mezentsev, Andrey; Marisaldi, Martino; Lindanger, Anders; Maiorana, Carolina; Carlson, Brant Edward; Neubert, Torsten; Reglero, Victor; Ullaland, Kjetil; Yang, Shiming; Genov, Georgi; Qureshi, Bilal Hasan; Budtz-Jørgensen, Carl; Kuvvetli, Irfan; Christiansen, Freddy; Chanrion, Olivier; Navarro-Gonzalez, Javier; Connel, P.; Eyles, Chris (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Terrestrial Gamma ray Flashes (TGFs) are short flashes of high energy photons, produced by thunderstorms. When interacting with the atmosphere, they produce relativistic electrons and positrons, and a part gets bounded to ...
    • Library of Simulated Gamma-Ray Glows and Application to Previous Airborne Observations 

      Sarria, David Alexandre Stephan; Østgaard, Nikolai; Marisaldi, Martino; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Mezentsev, Andrey (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)
      Gamma-Ray Glows (GRGs) are high energy radiation originating from thunderclouds, in the MeV energy regime, with typical duration of seconds to minutes, and sources extended over several to tens of square kilometers. GRGs ...
    • Production of Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes During the Early Stages of Lightning Flashes 

      Lindanger, Anders; Skeie, Chris Alexander Kallevik; Marisaldi, Martino; Bjørge-Engeland, Ingrid; Østgaard, Nikolai; Mezentsev, Andrey; Sarria, David Alexandre Stephan; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Reglero, Victor; Chanrion, Olivier; Neubert, Torsten (Journal article, 2022)
      Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) are short emissions of high energy photons associated with thunderstorms. It has been known since the discovery of TGFs that they are associated with lightning, and several case studies ...
    • A Rapid Gamma-Ray Glow Flux Reduction Observed From 20 km Altitude 

      Kochkin, Pavlo; Sarria, David Alexandre Stephan; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Mezentsev, Andrey; Yang, Shiming; Genov, Georgi; Ullaland, Kjetil; Marisaldi, Martino; Østgaard, Nikolai; Christian, Hugh J.; Grove, J.E.; Quick, M.; Al-Nussirat, S.; Wulf, E (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Two gamma-ray glows were observed by a high-altitude NASA ER-2 aircraft flying at 20 km altitude over a thunderstorm in Colorado, USA. The flux of the first glow rapidly intensified and then abruptly decreased within a few ...
    • Simultaneous Observations of EIP, TGF, Elve, and Optical Lightning 

      Østgaard, Nikolai; Cummer, S.A.; Mezentsev, Andrey; Luque, Alejandro; Dwyer, J.; Neubert, Torsten; Reglero, Victor; Marisaldi, Martino; Kochkin, Pavlo; Sarria, David Alexandre Stephan; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Ullaland, Kjetil; Yang, Shiming; Genov, Georgi; Chanrion, Olivier; Christiansen, Freddy; Pu, Y. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      On February 8, 2019, the Atmosphere-Space Interaction Monitor observed a terrestrial gamma-ray flash (TGF) and an Elve from a positive intracloud (+IC) lightning during the initial breakdown stage of a lightning flash north ...
    • Spectral Analysis of Individual Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes Detected by ASIM 

      Lindanger, Anders; Marisaldi, Martino; Sarria, David Alexandre Stephan; Østgaard, Nikolai; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Skeie, Chris Alexander Kallevik; Mezentsev, Andrey; Kochkin, Pavlo; Ullaland, Kjetil; Yang, Shiming; Genov, Georgi; Carlson, Brant Edward; Köhn, Christoph; Navarro-Gonzalez, Javier; Connell, Paul H.; Reglero, Victor; Neubert, Torsten (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) is the first instrument in space specifically designed to observe terrestrial gamma-ray flashes (TGFs). TGFs are high energy photons associated with lightning flashes and ...
    • Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes With Accompanying Elves Detected by ASIM 

      Bjørge-Engeland, Ingrid; Østgaard, Nikolai; Mezentsev, Andrey; Skeie, Chris Alexander Kallevik; Sarria, David Alexandre Stephan; Lapierre, Jeff; Lindanger, Anders; Neubert, Torsten; Marisaldi, Martino; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Chanrion, Olivier; Ullaland, Kjetil; Yang, Shiming; Genov, Georgi; Christiansen, Freddy; Reglero, Victor (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      The Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor was designed to monitor Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) and Transient Luminous Events (TLEs) from space, enabling the study of how these phenomena are related. In this paper, ...
