Japanese researchers captured rare gamma-ray flash from lightning collision using advanced multi-sensor detection system.

That’s because the system consists of highly conductive copper and aluminum materials that provide a low resistance path for the lightning’s electricity to take into the ground -- to the ...

UPS systems alone are only part of the solution. A good grounding scheme can go a long way to protecting your expensive studio gear from the destructive force that is packed in every lightning storm ...

Buried out of sight and not visibly operating, these critical components can be largely out of mind until an event occurs, such as a wind tower crashing to the ground after a lightning strike. Don’t ...

Lightning protection systems for trees are ... copper cable “down-conductor” which directs the charge to a grounding rod system to dissipate the energy in the earth. Often when unprotected ...

The system uses ground-based sensors to detect when conditions are ripe—electric field fluctuations, usually the harbinger of lightning. When the moment is right, the drone launches, ascends ...
