[@BallisticHighSpeed]

Our best guess for the CFLs is that the glass being broken interrupts the electrical current needed to light the gas inside, and the "speed" of that current interruption would essentially be the speed of electricity (very fast).

[@TheNitroG1]

A voltage drop makes sense, also thought the change in pressure since light bulbs are never at the same pressure as the surrounding air. I guess you could control the voltage and record the moment the bulb shuts off to see if the dropping voltage causes the light to change color. Or perhaps even intentionally overload the bulb to watch it blowout in high speed.

[@-_-hi8964]

Check a four foot fluorescent bulb to see if it has same effect

[@iloveallthepeople]

For the first set, it's not the filaments that arc, it's the frames that suspend the filaments. So those leads are much less resistance and the connection ends up transferring the full 120v, the filaments have a very high resistance so as the electricity passes through, they heat up. For the fluorescent bulbs, the glass is filled with high pressure mercury vapor that is conductive, but it glows with ultraviolet light. The glass is coated in phosphorus powder and zinc sulfate, I think. Either way, the phosphorescent powder absorbs the high frequency short wave ultraviolet light and releases a lower wavelength white light. It works like glow in the dark pigment, except the amount of time it takes to release the energy is much more rapid. If the mercury vapor is not under pressure, it won't conduct the electricity. So you aren't seeing the gas release or the current drop, you are seeing the "glow" fade away. I'd bet it would look just like that if you flip the switch off. A crt (cathode ray tube) monitor or television has the same sort of power coating the inside of the screen, except it used a magnetron emitter and low pressure gas, I think that would be a wykked video to show. Just take the cover off , power em up, and shoot em up. Through the side, through the yoke on the back, and through the screen directly.

Thanks gents! Love the videos and definitely need more! Come on, it’s not that cold!!!

[@JMMC1005]

@@iloveallthepeople The drastic colour shifts are probably because the different phosphors (note phosphors and phosphorus are different things) fade out at different speeds. There's usually a few phosphors which peak at various colours mixed together to get a decent quality white light, so it looks like the blue phosphor dies first (making the bulb yellow), with the red phosphor next (leaving green to fade out last).

[@regi12358]

These CFLs are "glow discharge" plasma (low pressure around 2~3 Torr), as soon as the glass cracks nitrogen enters the plasma changing color. It doesn't need much to change color. As the chamber is at low pressure N2 moves very fast inside. N2 has a typical orange color plasma.

My guess is the CFL bulbs saw the bullet breaking in and were scared yellow...and then got sick and turned green after the bullet passed....lead poising maybe? :) Great video!!! I love your work, thank you.

[@rwandaforever6744]

Since the color change is so fast, it can't be a chemical effect or anything reacting. The only thing moving that fast is electric charge. The destruction of the coating probably disrupts the electric charge and the plasma is breaking down. What can be seen as yellow and green light could be the afterglow of the fluorescence inner coating fading away. Depends a bit on what the coating is made of. It usually is made of different materials with each fluorescing in a certain wavelength, which will combine to what is seen as white light. When the plasma drops its charge one of those fluorescence compounds will stop contributing immediately (maybe needs the highest charge?) and white will turn yellow, which slowly fades to green. But I am not an expert on this topic. So it is just my theory^^

I believe the CFL bulbs flashed yellow due to trace amounts of Mercury vapor being forced under higher pressure upon impact; then turned green/blue while it dispersed into the air introduced afterwards before balancing out to 1 atmosphere

[@Mark-gs6nn]

[@erico5865]

The colors you see are sodium and mercury vapor burning. Sodium is highly reactive so the millisecond where the air and water vapor enters the broken bulb the first burn is the sodium (yellow), then it transitions to appear green as the mercury vapor burns. Mercury vapor tends to burn blue, but since the sodium vapor combustion product is yellow, it makes it look like it's green

[@audiophile75]

Hey, just an FYI, there's no sodium or burning going on (most likely). I can't say whether the slight amount of Hg would actually spontaneously combust upon exposure to air BUT I do know that the colors shown aren't from that. I gave a fuller explanation above but essentially the "florescent" part of a florescent bulb is the white powder coating on the inside of the bulb which absorbs UV light from the gas and floresces back visible light. When the UV light stops then the powder "powers down" slowly losing energy and radiates a progressively smaller amount of less energetic light. To prove this go into a dark room and let your eyes totally adjust to the dark and have either a fully covered light that's been light for a while or have someone else bring it in. Cover your eyes so no light gets through your lids. immediatly after turning the light off open your eyes and you'll see it turn from bright green to ever duller, but it can last quite a while, a number of minutes at least. I think the yellow is either the stepdown transition from highly energised white to green OR immediately after losing current you have an increasing see-saw equation of some of the powder still being high energy white mixed with more and more low energy greeen and the effect is yellow. Anyhow, happy sciencing!

[@JMMC1005]

The LED bulbs are usually pressurised with helium, which is probably contributing to the 'blowback' of fragments you see. This is to help transfer heat away from the LED 'filaments', which need to stay cool to have a good lifespan. Helium is used because it's got very high thermal conductivity.

[@f.d.6667]

CFLs change color the moment the plasma inside collapses: this plasma is emitting UV light, which in turn "powers" secondary emitters (rare-earth doped compounds) in the inside of the glass. These compounds emit light of longer wavelengths (compared to UV) which, when combined, give the impression of "white" light. As these compounds can store energy for a few milliseconds but different colors are differing in their ability to glow w/o UV input, *the result is a color shift to green when red/orange stops emitting light before the green emitter does.*

The green glow may be some of the copper atoms from the bullet surface ionising as it passes through the lamp. Or, it’s the low level glow from the phosphorus compound which is more green at low excitation compared to yellow/white at high excitation levels.

[@BallisticHighSpeed]

Interesting info! Thanks for that

[@neon-john]

Hi guys. i'm a retired nuclear and electrical engineer and for a hobby I make neon signs and art. What you're seeing in the CFLs is the phosphor afterglow. CFLs use multiple "colors" of rare earth phosphors, especially the ones designed for photography. Each color has a slightly different afterglow period. When your bullet breaks the glass, the glow discharge instantly extinguishes and what remains are the various afterglows. You can verify this by shooting a high speed video of simply turning the lamp off. It will glow white for a bit while the internal capacitor discharges but they you'll see the ever-changing color of the afterglows.

[@onefastneonrt]

My assumption as to why the cfl's turn yellow right away might have something to do with the leading shock wave. I'm wondering if the shock wave is dispersing some of the gases inside the tube causing the electrons not to excite.

[@MrKat62961]

Saw something interesting @7:03 mark. From the moment the weapon was fired, it took 1.87 seconds before the recoil started.

[@felixb.1756]

It turns yellow because of phosphorescence. As soon as air introduced the uv emission from the mercury vapor stops so the phosphor coating is no longer receiving light cause a kind of "glow in the dark" effect. You can see the same effect when turning the bulb off.

[@felixb.1756]

The reaction is instant because once air gets induced the flow of current is disrupted through the lamp instantly (basically the speed of light)

Well, what happens with the colour change of the fluorescent lamps is roughly this: First some context how those lamps work from Wikipedia: "A fluorescent lamp, or fluorescent tube, is a low-pressure mercury-vapor gas-discharge lamp that uses fluorescence to produce visible light. An electric current in the gas excites mercury vapor, which produces short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor coating on the inside of the lamp to glow." "A typical "cool white" fluorescent lamp utilizing two rare-earth-doped phosphors, Tb3+, Ce3+:LaPO4 for green and blue emission and Eu:Y2O3 for red. Several of the spectral peaks are directly generated from the mercury arc. This is likely the most common type of fluorescent lamp in use today." Now as the glass breaks, normal air rushes in and displaces the mercury plasma. As soon as the column of mercury plasma is broken electrical resistance surges up which interrupts the electrical current. Thus the mercury plasma is quenched simultaneously along the entire length of the tube. Thus the direct mercury light (light blue) vanishes leaving only the afterglow of the fluorescent materials which makes the tube look yellow. Without excitation the by the mercury light the fluorescence quickly decays with the green fluorescence of Tb3+, Ce3+:LaPO4 lasting a bit longer than the red one from Eu:Y2O3 which explains the colour shift to green.

[@BallisticHighSpeed]

An excellent explanation. Thanks so much.

[@lancemelissakeyes4174]

Air rushing in cannot explain the change in color. The color change is too fast to be captured by these cameras and air can only rush in and change the environment inside the tube at the speed that air molecules travel, the speed of sound. It must be electromagnetic and travel at the speed of light and that is why it can’t be captured by these cameras. The glass breaking breaks the circuit. Electricity stops flowing. All fluorescent compounds perceive a change in their environment simultaneously.

[@marcelmuller8166]

@@lancemelissakeyes4174 Sure, and that is exactly what I wrote: "As soon as the column of mercury plasma is broken electrical resistance surges up which interrupts the electrical current. Thus the mercury plasma is quenched simultaneously along the entire length of the tube." I.e. the mercury plasma is displaced locally, that interrupts the current, which quenches the plasma everywhere.

That was completely unexpected with the second light bulb. I think I was as shocked as you guys. When I saw it I was like ( what oh my God wow) I did not expect it to happen. You can make a lot of money or win a lot of drinks in a bar. If I told you that this kind of light bulb turned green if you break it would you believe me. If not you owe me a beer lol

[@skylersmall6322]

Information travels at the speed of light. The glass cracking I believe is happening at the speed of light and the color change is probably only slightly behind that.

[@smeggyhead1]

The CFL turning yellow isn't due to shockwave or oxidisation effects. The key is to realise the bulbs are NOT turning yellow. When you remove the blue component from 'white' light, the result is yellow. The blue comes from the electrical excitation of the gas. The yellow is the effect of the phosphor, turning some of that blue into yellow light (hence the overall effect is 'white'). The excitation generating the blue light IMMEDIATELY stops once the glass is compromised and ordinary air leaks in. I guess the phosphor coating has a short period of luminescence (even longer for the green). Hence immediately appearing yellow.

The color change has something to do with fluorescence, and that is something about molecules absorbing high energetic photons which cause electrons to radiate in two steps and produce light..., something like that. And that stuff happens pretty fast. Fluorescence is most likely the reason for the green color, and some UV, which your camera didn't see.

[@TheoddLedgend]

I would believe the reason they're instantly turning yellow is the shockwave is compressing the gas inside causing a different reaction in the release of energy then the oxygen is introduced in the mix which turns it green.
