Abstract :
Summary form only given. The possibility of ball lightning formation by rocket-triggered lightning with a grounded trailing inductive coil has been suggested in my paper, 7E05: EHD and MHD Models of Fireballs and Their Relevance to Natural and Artificial Ball Lightning for the Oral Session 7E: 4.6 Spherical Configuration/Ball Lightning at the ICOPS 97, p.319. The present paper proceeds in more detail along this line.
