A standard germicidal lamp (inside a mercury vapor) is connected to a low power high voltage generator. After a certain time, the luminescence of mercury changed color from blue to pale purple, the camera does not reproduce colors well. A number of mechanisms for such a change can be assumed:
- loss of tightness and air ingress
- the connection of mercury with the cathode or other reactions
- low-energy nuclear reactions ...
These kinds of questions are addressed through in-depth research with funding.
