Atmospheric and Oceanic Physics 2017-05-17 v1 Space Physics

Abstract

Lightning is common throughout the Solar System, and charging of particles occurs in all atmospheres due to ionization from galactic cosmic rays. Here, some electrical processes relevant to the atmosphere of Venus are outlined and discussed in a comparative planetology context.
