Abstract
AbstractThe knowledge of radioactive 14C yield under atmospheric thunderstorm flash conditions (the additional channel of 14C production relative to the main cosmogenic one) is important for radiocarbon analysis. A gross model for evaluation of the thunderstorm 14C yield simulated for the altitudes up to 15 km is proposed. It was observed that yield from the thunderstorm mechanisms of 14C creation cannot compete with cosmogenic production which is six orders of value larger. The obtained result allows us to eliminate the problematic issue on thunderstorm radiocarbon generation in the atmosphere as the additional significant source.
