TL;DR
This paper provides experimental evidence for giant electron-gamma bursts generated in thunderclouds through the interaction of runaway breakdown and extensive atmospheric showers, using specialized detection equipment.
Contribution
It presents the first experimental confirmation of giant electron-gamma bursts caused by RB-EAS in thunderclouds, utilizing a novel radiointerferometer setup.
Findings
Giant electron-gamma bursts are generated in thunderclouds.
The bursts result from runaway breakdown and atmospheric showers.
Experimental setup successfully detected these phenomena.
Abstract
The existence of a new phenomena - giant electron-gamma bursts is established. The bursts are generated in thunderclouds as a result of the combined action of runaway breakdown and extensive atmosphere showers (RB-EAS). The experiments were fulfilled at the Tien Shan Mountain Scientific Station using EAS-Radio installation. This specially constructed installation consists of a wide spread EAS trigger array and a high time resolution radiointerferometer.
