Abstract :
A review of recent lightning corona sheath dynamics research is presented together with a short description of early views of lightning corona sheath. A current state of knowledge about corona sheath conductivity is described and a short discussion on a role of radially flowing corona current in longitudinal extension of the channel is given. Consequences of adoption of corona current concept in the Lumped Current Source (LCS) type models are described, that is, a duality between LCS type models and the Distributed Current Sources (DCS) type models is rigorously demonstrated.
