چکیده
A few hours after the 2017 Ezgeleh earthquake, reports and videos of strange lights were reported by local people. The rumors about the source of light among the people have increased sharply, and even some have attributed it to HAARP experiments. Nowadays these lights are known and they are called earthquake light (EQL). EQL is a luminous aerial phenomenon that reportedly appears in the sky at or near areas of tectonic stress, seismic activity, or volcanic eruptions and presumably caused by the accumulation and release of the stress of the earthquake process, observed prior to or during a seismic event and/or during the aftershock sequence. This presentation is the introductory part of a project that investigates the mechanism for generating EQL and the relationship between luminous and earthquakes.

Abstract
A few hours after the 2017 Ezgeleh earthquake, reports and videos of strange lights were reported by local people. The rumors about the source of light among the people have increased sharply, and even some have attributed it to HAARP experiments. Nowadays these lights are known and they are called earthquake light (EQL). EQL is a luminous aerial phenomenon that reportedly appears in the sky at or near areas of tectonic stress, seismic activity, or volcanic eruptions and presumably caused by the accumulation and release of the stress of the earthquake process, observed prior to or during a seismic event and/or during the aftershock sequence. This presentation is the introductory part of a project that investigates the mechanism for generating EQL and the relationship between luminous and earthquakes.
