Re: Strange Blue Glows Re: [TCML] Energy accumulation on TC.
When I put my gas tubes away after a run they usually light up when I
handle them.
I have 4 tubes that are clear glass about 15 inch long with neon sign
type electrodes. Judging by the color I am guessing that 2 are argon,
and 1 is neon, and the other neon and something else . They have no
phosphor inside. You can see the tubes in these videos.

The ionization may be caused by the discharge of surface charge when you
handle them .
I will try to get some video of this.

Persistence of the glow from phosphors in fluorescent bulbs can last
several minutes as well.
I guess it's worth revisiting that years ago I got a fluorescent bulb to
flash when I touched it, after I had drawn topload arcs through my body and
*after* the coil had been turned off. Passing the bulb to other people who
had been in close proximity to the running coil had no effect, but it still
flashed when they gave it back to me. Unfortunately, it's an experiment that
nobody should duplicate, so I wonder if we'll ever know what was really going
on. Maybe one day I'll see if I can electrify a steak or a bag of Jello and get
the same effect.
