摘要: A mechanism is analyzed of the electric field enhancement in a lightning leader up to level permitting runaway low-energy electrons. The ionization wave propagation preionized domain front makes it possible overcome limitation imposed on intensity by transversal expansion front. By means numerical simulations, demonstrated that, at final stage formation new step, generation an channels streamer zone ahead step with sufficient for electron and, consequently, producing X-ray and γ-ray pulses observed correlation steps.
