Simulated Impacts of Thundercloud Charge Distributions on Sprite Halos Using a 3D Quasi-Electrostatic Field Model

Simulated Impacts of Thundercloud Charge Distributions on Sprite Halos Using a 3D Quasi-Electrostatic Field Model

Sprite halos are transient luminous phenomena in the lower ionosphere triggered by tropospheric lightning. The effect of removed charge distributions on sprite halos has not been sufficiently discussed. A three-dimensional (3D) quasi-electrostatic (QES) field model was developed in this paper, inclu...
