Abstract: Radio signatures of lightning discharges on Saturn have first been discovered by the Voyager spacecraft in 1980/81. After the Voyager flybys, the next sets of measurements only became available in 2004, when the Cassini spacecraft approached Saturn. Since then, Cassini provides continuous monitoring of Saturn’s lightning activity. In 2006, ground-based observations became available as a complementary source of information. Using a new broadband receiver at the UTR-2 radio telescope (Ukraine), Saturn lightning was observed over the whole spectral range of the instrument (10-30 MHz). This allows study of the temporal fine structure of the emission with a much finer temporal resolution than that of the routine satellite observations. More recently, Saturn lightning was also observed by two further ground-based radiotelescopes, namely WSRT (the Netherlands) and LOFAR (Europe). We present first results of recent ground-based observations of Saturn lightning performed with the radiotelescopes UTR-2, WSRT and LOFAR, and we describe the aims of future observations using these instruments.

… The 7th International Workshop on "Planetary, Solar and Heliospheric Radio Emissions" is the continuation of an established tradition: This PRE VII conference followed previous successful international workshops held at Graz, Austria, in 1984, 1987, 1991, 1996, 2001, and 2005. This 7th workshop in September 2010 offered again the unique opportunity to discuss the observations from Cassini at Saturn and to investigate the measurements by other spacecraft and from the ground of the Jovian, terrestrial and solar radio emissions, also including studies on radiation from exoplanetary sources.
