    • Blue Flashes as Counterparts to Narrow Bipolar Events: The Optical Signal of Shallow In-Cloud Discharges 

      Li, Dongshuai; Luque, Alejandro; Gordillo-Vázquez, F.J.; Liu, Feifan; Lu, Gaopeng; Neubert, Torsten; Chanrion, Olivier; Zhu, Baoyou; Østgaard, Nikolai; Reglero, Víctor (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Narrow Bipolar Events (NBEs) are powerful radio emissions from thunderstorms, which have been recently associated with blue optical flashes on cloud tops and attributed to extensive streamer electrical discharges named ...

    • Enhancing higher-energy spectral resolution for electron particle simulations in air 

      Schmalzried, Anthony; Luque, Alejandro; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      In the presence of an electric field, electrons would theoretically accelerate asymptotically to relativistic energies. However, regular collisions with air molecules limit the increase in electron energy. The stochastic ...

    • Global Frequency and Geographical Distribution of Nighttime Streamer Corona Discharges (BLUEs) in Thunderclouds 

      Soler, S.; Gordillo-Vázquez, F.J.; Pérez-Invernón, F. J.; Luque, Alejandro; Li, D.; Neubert, Torsten; Chanrion, Olivier; Reglero, Victor; Navarro-Gonzalez, Javier; Østgaard, Nikolai (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Blue LUminous Events (BLUEs) are transient corona discharges occurring in thunderclouds and characterized by strong 337.0 nm light flashes with absent (or weak) 777.4 nm component. We present the first nighttime climatology ...

    • Initiation of lightning flashes simultaneously observed from space and the ground: Narrow bipolar events 

      López, Jesús A.; Montanyà, Joan; van der Velde, Oscar; Romero, David; Gordillo-Vázquez, Francisco J.; Pérez-Invernón, Francisco J.; Luque, Alejandro; Morales Rodriguez, Carlos Augusto; Neubert, Torsten; Rison, William; Krehbiel, Paul; González, Javier Navarro; Østgaard, Nikolai; Reglero, Víctor (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      We investigate the initiation of four lightning flashes detected from ground by means of the Colombia Lightning Mapping Array (Colombia-LMA) and simultaneously observed from space by the optical sensors of the Atmosphere-Space ...

    • Modeling lightning observations from space-based platforms (CloudScat.jl 1.0) 

      Luque, Alejandro; Gordillo-Vázquez, Francisco José; Li, Dongshuai; Malagón-Romero, Alejandro; Pérez-Invernón, F. J.; Schmalzried, Anthony; Soler, Sergio; Chanrion, Olivier; Heumesser, Matthias; Neubert, Torsten; Reglero, Victor; Østgaard, Nikolai (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      We describe a computer code that simulates how a satellite observes optical radiation emitted by a lightning flash after it is scattered within an intervening cloud. Our code, CloudScat.jl, is flexible, fully open source ...

    • Multi-Pulse Corona Discharges in Thunderclouds Observed in Optical and Radio Bands 

      Li, Dongshuai; Luque, Alejandro; Lehtinen, Nikolai Grigorievich; Gordillo-Vázquez, F.J.; Neubert, Torsten; Lu, Gaopeng; Chanrion, Olivier; Zhang, Hongbo; Østgaard, Nikolai; Reglero, Víctor (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      How lightning initiates inside thunderclouds remains a major puzzle of atmospheric electricity. By monitoring optical emissions from thunderstorms, the Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) onboard the International ...

    • Optical emissions associated with narrow bipolar events from thunderstorm clouds penetrating into the stratosphere 

      Liu, Feifan; Lu, Gaopeng; Neubert, Torsten; Lei, Jiuhou; Chanrion, Olivier; Østgaard, Nikolai; Li, Dongshuai; Luque, Alejandro; Gordillo-Vázquez, Francisco J.; Reglero, Victor; Lyu, Weitao; Zhu, Baoyou (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) are signatures in radio signals from thunderstorms observed by ground-based receivers. NBEs may occur at the onset of lightning, but the discharge process is not well understood. Here, we present ...

    • 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 Observations of Optical Emissions Associated With Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes 

      Heumesser, Matthias; Chanrion, Olivier; Neubert, Torsten; Christian, Hugh J.; Dimitriadou, Krystallia; Gordillo-Vazquez, Francisco J.; Luque, Alejandro; Pérez-Invernón, F. J.; Blakeslee, Richard J.; Østgaard, Nikolai; Reglero, Victor; Köhn, Christoph (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor measures Terrestrial Gamma-Ray Flashes (TGFs) simultaneously with optical emissions from associated lightning activity. We analyzed optical measurements at 180–230, 337, and 777.4 ...
