Determining Atmospheric Electric Fields using MGMR3D

T. N. G. Trinh, O. Scholten, S. Buitink +4

Cosmic-ray particles impinging on the atmosphere induce high-energy particle cascades in air, an Extensive Air Shower (EAS), emitting coherent radio emission. This emission is affe…

The initial stage of cloud lightning imaged in high-resolution

O. Scholten, B. M. Hare, J. Dwyer +21

With LOFAR we have been able to image the development of lightning flashes with meter-scale accuracy and unprecedented detail. We discuss the primary steps behind our most recent l…

Radio emission from negative lightning leader steps reveals inner meter-scale structure

B. M. Hare, O. Scholten, J. Dwyer +19

We use the Low Frequency ARray (LOFAR) to probe the dynamics of the stepping process of negatively-charged plasma channels (negative leaders) in a lightning discharge. We observe t…

Reconstructing air shower parameters with LOFAR using event specific GDAS atmospheres

P. Mitra, A. Bonardi, A. Corstanje +15

The limited knowledge of atmospheric parameters like humidity, pressure, temperature, and the index of refraction has been one of the important systematic uncertainties in reconstr…

On the cosmic-ray energy scale of the LOFAR radio telescope

K. Mulrey, S. Buitink, A. Corstanje +14

Cosmic rays are routinely measured at LOFAR, both with a dense array of antennas and with the LOFAR Radboud air shower Array (LORA) which is an array of plastic scintillators. In t…
