Pilot system development in metre-scale laboratory discharge

Pavlo Kochkin, Nikolai Lehtinen, Alexander +2

The pilot system development in metre-scale negative laboratory discharges is studied with ns-fast photography. The systems appear as bipolar structures in the vicinity of the nega…

In-flight measurements of energetic radiation from lightning and thunderclouds

P. O. Kochkin, A. P. J. van Deursen, A. de Boer +2

In the certification procedure aircraft builders carry out so-called icing tests flights, where the zero degree Celsius altitude is deliberately sought and crossed in or under thun…

Experimental study on hard X-rays emitted from metre-scale negative discharges in air

P. O. Kochkin, A. P. J. van Deursen, Ute Ebert

We investigate the development of meter long negative discharges and focus on their X-ray emissions. We describe appearance, timing and spatial distribution of the X-rays. They app…

Experimental study of the spatio-temporal development of meter-scale negative discharge in air

P. O. Kochkin, A. P. J. van Deursen, U. Ebert

We study the development of a negative discharge driven by a Marx generator of about 1 MV in an air gap of 1 up to 1.5 meter, at standard temperature and pressure. We show the evol…

Experimental study of hard X-rays emitted from meter-scale positive discharges in air

P. O. Kochkin, C. V. Nguyen, A. P. J. van Deursen +1

We investigate structure and evolution of long positive spark breakdown; and we study at which stage pulses of hard X-rays are emitted. Positive high-voltage pulses of standardized…
