Energetic Charged Particles Above Thunderclouds
The French government has committed to launch the satellite TARANIS to study transient coupling processes between the Earth’s atmo sphere and near-Earth space. The prime objective of TARANIS is to detect energetic charged particles and hard radiation emanating from thunderclouds. The British Nobel prize winner C.T.R. Wilson predicted lightning discharges from the top of thunderclouds into spac...
متن کاملDetection Of Energetic Charged Particles During Electrolysis
By the use of Cr-39 particle track detectors immersed in the electrolyte, we confirm that a nuclear reaction of as-yet unknown nature can take place during electrolysis. With Li2SO4 dissolved in D2O or H2O and either Pd or Ni as cathodes, a very large statistical difference in nuclear track generation is found between detector chips immersed during electrolysis and the control chips immersed in...

متن کاملTransport and Acceleration of Energetic Charged Particles near an Oblique Shock
We have developed a numerical simulation code that treats the transport and acceleration of charged particles crossing an idealized oblique, non-relativistic shock within the framework of pitch angle transport using a finite-difference method. We consider two applications: 1) to study the steady-state acceleration of energetic particles at an oblique shock, and 2) to explain observed precursors...
متن کاملEnergetic Charged Particles Produced in the Gas Phase by Electrolysis
CR-39 plastic detector chips suspended in the vapor over the electrolytic solution during electrolysis record the tracks of highly energetic charged particles. The probability that the track densities found in these detector chips and the generally smaller track densities found in controls belong to a common population is 3 x 10-10 by the Mann-Whitney statistical test. It is therefore concluded...
