Scientific paper

Telescopic images of sprites show a wide variety of generally vertical but also slanted fine structure, including branching tree-like shapes and well defined but isolated columns, with transverse spatial scales ranging from tens of meters to a few hundred meters at ~60-85 km altitude. Simultaneous analysis of radio atmospheric and lightning data indicates that specific columnar regions are selectively excited by successive discharges.
