xenon
colorless, orderless, gas used in a gas discharge lamp to produce white light.
xenon lamp
a light source containing xenon gas; usually operated as a pulsed light source, as in a strobe lamp.
Xenon
is a rare gas sometimes used with electronic flash tubes and enclosed arc light sources.

When you make corrections on an additive printer, the printer is actually controlling the time that the additive colors are allowed to expose the paper through either pulsed-xenon tubes or CC filters; for example, ...
Flash illumination is produced by an electrical discharge though a glass tube filled with gas (often Xenon) at low pressure. This is a short burst of light, typically lasting 1/1000s or so.
Today's flash units are often electronic xenon flash lamps. An electronic flash contains a tube filled with xenon gas, where electricity of high voltage is discharged to generate an electrical arc that emits a short flash of light.
Strobe light is created when a spark jumps through a tube of Xenon gas. This is the reason that the light has such a short duration, about 1/1000th of a second, but sometimes as shot as 1/50000th of a second.
What you really need is a xenon flash just like the one that comes with your digital point-and-shoot or digital SLR. xenon flashes are about 10,000 times more powerful than L.E.D. flashes.
HID (High Intensity Discharger) CID (Compact Indium Discharge), CSI (Compact Source Iodide), xenon and most importantly for shooting purposes, HMI (Hydrargyrum, Medium Arc-length Iodide), are lamps containing special gases under pressure (some high, ...
X sync causes the Xenon electronic flash to burst in synchronization with the full opening of the shutter. For some manual cameras, the X sync speed refers to the maximum speed that the camera can synchronize with the flash.[1]
M Sync Edit ...
In the last section, we saw that a flash circuit needs to turn a battery's low voltage into a high voltage in order to light up a xenon tube.
I haven't been able to find out why shutter sync with electronic flash is referred to as "X" sync, though X standing for xenon and electric contacts are the most popular theories.
The sharpest lenses I've ever used are my Schneider lenses from the 1950s for my 4x5, and you saw on Saturday, a 52-year old Schneider Xenon on film is still sharper than Nikon's best and latest on the D3. German lenses: there is no substitute.
Many users with American Micro Devices (AMD) 64-bit processors and some with Intel Xenon based systems have had difficulty getting Nikon Capture to run at all, receiving instead the dreaded "blue screen of death" or other major program crashes.
