The ENLIGHTEN project investigates the relationship between gamma-ray emissions and lightning initiation in thunderclouds. By employing advanced imaging techniques, the project seeks to uncover the mechanisms that trigger lightning, addressing a fundamental question in atmospheric science.
Lightning strikes earth 45 times each second, but we still don’t understand exactly what initiates it.
The large electric fields in thunderclouds are also responsible for charged particle acceleration, ultimately leading to gamma-ray production.
Energetic radiation is an essential component of thundercloud dynamics.
Energetic radiation and lightning discharge appear tightly linked, but the nature of this link is yet to be understood. ENLIGHTEN posits a causal relationship between energetic radia…
