The physical mechanism of Narrow bipolar events (NBEs) has been studied for decades but it still holds many mysteries. Recent observations indicate that the fast breakdown discharges that produce NBEs sometimes contain a secondary fast breakdown that propa ...
The evaluation of lightning ElectroMagnetic (EM) fields represents the most cumbersome part of the lightning-induced voltages computation process. Their evaluation is usually performed through a numerical routine or with simplified analytical expressions, ...
This paper deals with the mathematical expressions called Sommerfeld integrals. Introduced by A. Sommerfeld in 1909, they are mathematically equivalent to inverse Hankel transforms. The original historical goal of these integrals was to provide an accurate ...
Millimeter-wave (mm-wave) and terahertz (THz) detection has opened a significant research direction in imaging, sensing, spectroscopy, and ultrafast wireless communication.The sensitivity of the phase transition to electromagnetic waves in Vanadium dioxide ...
In this chapter, we discussed the TL theory and its application to the problem of lightning electromagnetic field coupling to transmission lines. After a short discussion on the underlying assumptions of the TL theory, we described seemingly different but ...

A correct representation of the lightning current is crucial when the electromagnetic field radiated to a point of interest has to be computed. Based on the engineering models of Transmission Line type, such representation involves the knowledge of the ret ...
Mobile network operators constantly have to upgrade their cellular network to satisfy the public's hunger for increasing data capacity. However, regulatory limits regarding allowed electromagnetic field strength on existing cell sites often limit or preven ...
We review three different approaches for the calculation of electromagnetic multipoles, namely, the Cartesian primitive multipoles, the Cartesian irreducible multipoles, and the spherical multipoles. We identify the latter as the best suited to describe th ...
Recent research work shows that there are four procedures that can be used to calculate the electromagnetic fields from a current source. These different procedures, even though producing the same total field, give rise to field components that differ from ...
