Fast Initial Continuous Current Pulses vs Return Stroke Pulses in Tower-initiated Lightning

Mario Paolone, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Stefan Metz, Davide Pavanello

We present a study focused on pulses superimposed on the initial continuous current of upward negative discharges. The study is based on experimental data consisting of correlated lightning current waveforms recorded at the instrumented Santis Tower in Swi ...

A model for the evaluation of the electric field associated with the lightning-triggering rocket wire and its corona

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Aleksandr Smorgonskii

In this paper, we analyze the electric field at ground level during the first stage of triggered lightning experiments, i.e., during the rocket ascent and prior to the lightning initiation. At distances of some tens of meters from the triggering wire, the ...

On the global structure of deformed Yang-Mills theory and QCD(adj) on R-3 x S-1

Spatial compactification on R(3)xS(L)(1), at small S-1-size L often leads to a calculable vacuum structure, where various "topological molecules" are responsible for confinement and the realization of the center and discrete chiral symmetries. Within this ...

Low-temperature Collisions between Neutral Molecules in Merged Molecular Beams

Andreas Osterwalder, Justinas Jankunas, Benjamin Bertsche

We have developed an experiment for the investigation of neutral molecular collisions in the gas phase at temperatures as low as 100 mK. These low temperatures are obtained by merging two supersonic expansions, using an electric and a magnetic guide, and b ...
