Abstract :
High-efficiency gaseous-conduction lamps, as exemplified by the recently developed sodium, fluorescent, and high-pressure mercury lamps, are discussed in this paper. The relationship between the light energy radiated at different wave lengths and the efficiency of the lamps is treated in some detail.
