- Summary:
- This book summarises the fruitful results of rocket-triggered lightning experiments conducted in Guangdong, China, in recent years, including data analysis and theoretical research. One of the main features of this book is to compare the differences between lightning strikes on overhead power lines and strikes on the ground. Starting from the technical background and experimental methods of rocket-triggered lightning, the book delves into the electric current, electric field, magnetic field, optical and acoustic characteristics of artificially triggered lightning. Proceeding progressively from basic to advanced levels, this book meets the needs of scientists at different levels of expertise. It will benefit researchers, engineers and graduate students working in the fields of lightning detection, lightning physics and lightning protection.
