- The transport properties and electron states in cylinder nanowires of Dirac and Weyl semimetals are studied paying special attention to the structure and properties of the surface Fermi arcs. The latter make the electric charge and current density distributions in nanowires strongly nonuniform as the majority of the charge density is accumulated at the surface. It is found that a Weyl semimetal wire also supports a magnetization current localized mainly at the surface because of the Fermi arcs contribution. By using the Kubo linear response approach, the direct current (DC) conductivity is calculated and it is found that its spatial profile is nontrivial. By explicitly separating the contributions of the surface and bulk states, it is shown that when the electric chemical potential and/or the radius of the wire is small, the electron transport is determined primarily by the Fermi arcs and the electrical conductivity is much higher at the surface than in the bulk. Due to the rise of the surface-bulk transition rate, the relative contribution of the surface states to the total conductivity gradually diminishes as the chemical potential increases. In addition, the DC conductivity at the surface demonstrates noticeable peaks when the Fermi level crosses energies of the surface states.

- For 46 multiple-stroke flashes in which each stroke ground termination was located using a TV camera network and thunder ranging, 15 flashes (33%) had one or more subsequent return strokes whose initial electric field peak normalized to 100 km was greater than the first-stroke field peak of the flash. In 9 of these 15 flashes the subsequent strokes with field peaks greater than the first stroke followed the same channel as the first stroke; in five flashes the subsequent strokes with the greater peaks followed a different channel to ground; and in one flash the subsequent strokes with the greater peaks occurred both in the first-stroke channel and in a different channel. The interstroke intervals immediately preceding the 13 larger subsequent strokes that followed the first-stroke channel had a geometric mean (GM) duration of 98 ms, 1.7 times greater than the GM of 57 ms for all 199 interstroke intervals (46 flashes) without any selection. Eight of the 13 larger subsequent strokes for which leader durations were measurable had a GM leader duration of 0.55 ms, 3.3 times smaller than the GM of 1.8 ms for 117 subsequent leaders with measurable duration in a previously formed channel of the 46 multiple-stroke flashes. For the six larger subsequent strokes that created a new channel to ground, the preceding interstroke interval had a GM of 130 ms, and the leader duration had a GM of 15 ms. No subsequent stroke with peak field exceeding the first in any category had a preceding interstroke interval less than 35 ms. Analysis of direct current measurements from Switzerland shows that subsequent-stroke currents exhibit many features similar to those of Florida subsequent-stroke electric fields. In 22 Florida single-stroke and multiple-stroke ground flashes the distances between multiple channel terminations in a given flash (33 measurements) ranged from 0.3 km to 7.3 km, with a GM of 1.7 km.
