Lightning stroke and neuropsychological impairment: cases and questions.
OBJECTIVE To objectify neuropsychological impairments in survivors of lightning stroke with lasting complaints about poor concentration and inability to divide their attention. DESIGN A series of six cases of lightning stroke were studied. All patients had lost consciousness and reported amnesia of varying length. Assessment took place between one and four years after injury, ensuring that th...
متن کاملLightning Return Stroke Speed
The available experimental data on return stroke speed for both negative and positive lightning are reviewed. The often assumed relationship between the return-stroke speed and peak current is shown to be generally not supported by experimental data. Reasons for the return-stroke speed being lower than the speed of light are discussed. Index Terms Lightning return stroke, propagation speed, pea...
متن کاملCases of Persons Struck by Lightning
T he accidents which occur from lightning are generally so instantaneously fatal, that no room is afforded for medical treatment; and few cases I believe are on record, where there is any detail of the appearances in the dead bodies of those who have suffered. In this slight notice of the following cases, which occurred during one thunder-storm, I am sorry I cannot do any thing to supply the la...
متن کاملSpectral Properties of Lightning Return Stroke
Using a slit-less spectrograph the spectra in the range of 390-660nm for first return strokes of CG lightning flashes have been obtained both in Qinghai plateau, northwestern China and in coastal area of Guangdong, southern China respectively. The heights of two observation sites differ by 2500 meters. Appling the atomic structure theory to the research work on lightning spectra, parameters suc...
متن کاملElectromagnetic models of the lightning return stroke
[1] Lightning return-stroke models are needed for specifying the source in studying the production of transient optical emission (elves) in the lower ionosphere, the energetic radiation from lightning, and characterization of the Earth’s electromagnetic environment, as well as studying lightning interaction with various objects and systems. Reviewed here are models based on Maxwell’s equations ...
