Description

"This dataset contains supplementary materials for the manuscript 'Rotating Electric Dipole Positive Feedback Model: A New Mechanism for Thunderstorm Cloud Lightning Genesis.' It includes: (1) Supplementary Material S1: Theoretical feasibility assessment of the 'ice-core and micro-deflagration' ball lightning hypothesis, with quantitative parameter validation; (2) Supplementary Material S2: 0D chemical kinetics modeling of methane-air plasmas under thunderstorm-relevant conditions, including the extended GRI-Mech mechanism (42 species, 55 reactions) and sensitivity analysis; (3) Experimental Protocol v3.0: Cloud-chamber verification procedures with explicit success and falsification criteria; (4) Python source code for the 0D kinetics model and COMSOL simulation parameters. All materials are provided under CC BY 4.0 license."
