Specification of UV, Visible, and Infrared Emission Spectra of Sprites and Blue Jets

Abstract

During the period of performance Stanford University constructed a VLF/ELF receiver to measure the VLF/ELF electromagnetic and quasi-electrostatic fields produced by lightning during Sprite and Blue Jet events, and deployed this instrument in the field to make such measurements. The data acquired in the field was used to characterized the electromagnetic and quasi-electrostatic fields produced by lightning during Sprite and Blue Jet events.
