  • Abstract
    An extension of an earlier paper (see ibid., vol.39, p.1051-4, July 1991) on this subject is hereby developed to allow for the generalization of the Born approximation to account for eddy currents in the column. Also, the relevance to VLF sprites is pointed out; these are ionized columns extending from the cloud tops to the low ionosphere
