Abstract
Temporary increase of luminosity of lightning channel during the stage of long continuing current is known as the M components. In this study 17 M components of 14 lightning flashes recorded with 10 ns sampling resolution is analyzed. Results suggest that in all analyzed cases the electric field change of M components is embedded with chaotic pulses.
