[1] Vertical electric field waveforms due to dart leader/return stroke sequences measured on the ground 15 and 30 m from the negative lightning channel are used to examine the so-called residual electric field, the difference between the leader electric field change, and the following return stroke electric field change. At these distances, no residual field is expected if the return stroke neu...

Archived samples from a previously unreported 1958 Stanley Miller electric discharge experiment containing hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) were recently discovered and analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography and time-of-flight mass spectrometry. We report here the detection and quantification of primary amine-containing compounds in the original sample residues, which were produced via s...
