Cosmic Rays Could Help Scientists Study Tornado Formation Through Muon Detection
Cosmic rays and their byproduct, muons, may help scientists study tornado formation by detecting pressure changes remotely. This technique would avoid the need for direct measurements within dangerous storms. Researchers plan to use muon detectors over large areas or portable versions to track severe weather patterns. The findings could enhance und...

Thunderstorms May Skew Ultra-High-Energy Gamma Ray Measurements, Experts Warn
The detection of ultra-high-energy gamma rays by the Large High Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) in Tibet has sparked debate over the accuracy of the findings. Experts suggest that thunderstorms could interfere with measurements by amplifying particle showers in the atmosphere, leading to overestimated gamma ray energy levels. A study by As...

Massive Thunderstorms on Jupiter Could Change Its Colour and Appearance
Recent images of Jupiter reveal giant thunderstorms in the Southern Equatorial Belt. Reports suggest these storms, unleashing green lightning, could blend pale hues into the reddish-brown band, potentially causing it to vanish, as observed in prior events. Jupiter's storms remain visible for stargazers as it approaches Earth at its closest point.

NASA's ER-2 Aircraft Unveils Complex Gamma Rays from Thunderstorms
Recent flights by NASA’s ER-2 aircraft have uncovered new types of gamma rays generated by thunderstorms. These observations indicate that gamma-ray glows are more common and long-lasting than previously thought, while newly identified flickering gamma-ray flashes might provide insights into the mechanisms behind lightning formation.
