Photonuclear reactions triggered by lightning discharge

Ground-based observations during a thunderstorm provide conclusive evidence of positrons being produced after lightning, confirming that lightning can trigger photonuclear reactions. Generating radioactive isotopes in thunderstorms Lightning, particularly the very energetic γ-ray flashes, can theore...
