A review of the modeling approaches of the lightning M-component with special attention to their current and electric field characteristics
Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Carlo Alberto Nucci, Qi Li
In this paper, we present the characteristics of current, electric fields and modeling approaches of lightning M-component mode of charge transfer. We consider both the classical M-components (occurring after return strokes) and M-component-type ICC (Initi ...
2023Analytic Approximation of In-Body Path Loss for Implanted Antennas
Anja Skrivervik, Zvonimir Sipus, Mingxiang Gao
Implantable bioelectronic devices predominantly use wireless links for communication and/or power transfer. When considering transmitting implanted antennas, electromagnetic radiation through biological media is highly attenuated, and previous work has sho ...
IEEE-INST ELECTRICAL ELECTRONICS ENGINEERS INC2023Säntis Lightning Research Facility Instrumentation
Mario Paolone, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Antonio Sunjerga, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Carlos Alberto Romero Romero, Davide Pavanello, Abraham Rubinstein, David Smith
The Säntis Tower was instrumented in May 2010 to measure currents of lightning discharges striking the tower. Since then the system has been recurrently updated and expanded. Currently, data associated with lightning strikes to the tower are collected at f ...
2021Role of electric currents in the Fano resonances of connected plasmonic structures
Olivier Martin, Marco Riccardi
In this work, we use finite elements simulations to study the far field properties of two plasmonic structures, namely a dipole antenna and a cylinder dimer, connected to a pair of nanorods. We show that electrical, rather than near field, coupling between ...
2021Characteristics of different charge transfer modes in upward flashes inferred from simultaneously measured currents and fields
Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Davide Pavanello, Lixia He, Qi Li
The authors present an analysis of different charge transfer modes during upward negative flashes. The analysis includes a total number of 94 pulses that occurred during two upward negative flashes recorded at the Säntis Tower. The pulses included 59 mixed ...
2020Benefits and drawbacks of applied direct currents for soil improvement via carbonate mineralization
Lyesse Laloui, Dimitrios Terzis, Patrick Gabriel Yihsiu-Ming Hicher
The study presented herein adopts a new vision of the processes involved in carbonate mineralization induced by MICP from an electrochemical and crystal growth perspective. More precisely a specific line of focus refers to the species involved in the bio-c ...
EDP Sciences2020Modeling Compact Intracloud Discharge (CID) as a Streamer Burst
Narrow Bipolar Pulses are generated by bursts of electrical activity in the cloud and these are referred to as Compact Intracloud Discharges (CID) or Narrow Bipolar Events in the current literature. These discharges usually occur in isolation without much ...
2020Electric Field Analysis and Measurement for a Resistively Loaded Monocone
A novel resistively loaded monocone was proposed to extend the application for electric field calibration. Electric field analysis and measurement were carried out to verify the design of the proposed monocone. As revealed by the results, the S-11 of the m ...
IEEE2020Experimental verification of X-point potential well formation in unfavorable magnetic field direction
Basil Duval, Holger Reimerdes, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Sophie Danielle Angelica Gorno, Claudia Colandrea, Marco Wischmeier, Cedric Kar-Wai Tsui, Mirko Wensing, Hugo De Oliveira
Recent TCV experiments confirm the predicted formation of an electric potential well, below the magnetic X-point, in configurations with unfavorable field direction (ion drift away from the divertor), that substantially reshapes the typica ...
2020Electric-field control of single-molecule tautomerization
Klaus Kern, Christian Alexander Stephan Dette, Shai Mangel, Katharina Polyudov, Tobias Wollandt
The electric field is an important parameter to vary in a single-molecule experiment, because it can directly affect the charge distribution around the molecule. Yet, performing such an experiment with a well-defined electric field for a model chemical rea ...
