Description

Neon is a colorless, odorless, inert monatomic gas. It is the second lightest noble gas, after helium. Neon is a rare element, making up only 0.00182% of the Earth's atmosphere by volume. It is found in trace amounts in the air, and is extracted by fractional distillation of liquid air. Neon is used in various applications, including:
- Neon signs: The characteristic orange-red glow of neon signs is produced by passing an electrical current through neon gas.
- Lasers: Neon is used in helium-neon lasers, which are used in barcode scanners, laser pointers, and scientific applications.
- High-voltage indicators: Neon lamps are used as indicators in high-voltage equipment.
- Cryogenics: Liquid neon is used as a refrigerant in some cryogenic applications.
Neon is studied due to its unique properties, including its inertness, its ability to emit light when excited, and its low boiling point. It is a valuable element in various fields, and its applications continue to grow.'

Neon: A noble gas with the atomic symbol Ne, atomic number 10, and atomic weight 20.18. It is found in the earth's crust and atmosphere as an inert, odorless gas and is used in vacuum tubes and incandescent lamps. [Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), National Library of Medicine, extracted Dec-2023]

Research Excerpts

Overview

NEON serves as a valuable educational resource, thanks to its open data and programming tutorials. There is currently no introductory tutorial for accessing and analyzing the soil shotgun metagenomic dataset. EYE NEON is a multicentre study that will run in retinal clinics across 25 National Health Service with the aim to recruit 800 patients with new onset nAMD in the first eye.
