The 1908 Tunguska event and electromagnetic phenomena

Andrei Ol'khovatov 

This paper is a continuation of a series of works, devoted to various aspects
of the 1908 Tunguska event. In this paper its author would like to draw attention to
the arguments about the manifestations of electromagnetic phenomena in the 1908
Tunguska event. A review is provided of some data supporting the idea about the
manifestation of electromagnetic phenomena. Although there is no direct instrumental
registration of electrical discharges in the epicenter area in 1908, there are many
indirect arguments in favor of their presence. The latter is in agreement with the
geophysical interpretation.
