Abstract
A Groza installation for studying a lightning discharge mechanism in thunderclouds and clarifying its interrelation with cosmic rays has been designed in the Tien Shan high-altitude cosmic-ray station. The basic results obtained with the Groza installation consisting of detectors serving different purposes and synchronously initiated by a trigger pulse are presented.
