| They attributed those lines to the presence of three new elements, which they named neon, krypton, and xenon. |
| Along with helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon, it is classed as an inert gas within group 0 of the periodic table. |
| A cathode emits a stream of electrons that collides with neutral atoms of xenon, a gaseous element, in a chamber. |
| They would like to use their carborane acids to bind protons to atoms of the inert gas xenon. |
| For visible-light applications using halogen or xenon lamps, an aluminum-silicon-oxide coating is also available. |
| Plus, xenon happens to be a noble gas, which means it won't corrode or otherwise interact chemically with anything. |
