Self Consistent Modeling of Relativistic Runaway Electron Beams Giving Rise to Terrestrial Gamma‐Rays Flashes

Terrestrial Gamma Ray Flashes (TGFs) are short bursts of gamma rays occurring during thunderstorms. They are believed to be produced by Relativistic Runaway Electron Avalanches (RREAs). In this paper, we present a new numerical model based on the Particle‐In‐Cell (PIC) method to simulate the interac...
