Multispectral Optical Diagnostics of Lightning from Space

Multispectral Optical Diagnostics of Lightning from Space

We present spectroscopic diagnostic methods that allow us to estimate the gas and the electron temperature in emerged lightning stroke channels (from thunderclouds) observed by the photometers and cameras of the Atmosphere Space Interaction Monitor (ASIM). We identify the species (molecules, atoms a...
