Abstract

In stormy weather situations, with thunder and lightning, we become aware (generally, and rightfully so, with a certain degree of fear) of the presence of electricity in the atmosphere. However, and although we don't always realise it, we are constantly surrounded by an intense electric field, even when the weather is good.
