unusual facts about Argon



Argonite

Inergen, Sinorix CDT and Cerexen, which use some combination of argon, nitrogen and carbon dioxide are similar products.

DEAP

Two photomultiplier tubes are used to detect the scintillation light produced by a particle interacting with the argon.

Oil and gas deposits in the Czech Republic

The West Kostelany deposit is only 70% methane, and is high in helium and argon, which can be extracted in industrial quantities.

Pakistan Atomic Research Reactor

Known as a Charged Particle Accelerator (CPA), the nuclear accelerator is a 250 keV Ion accelerator which can deliver all Gaseous ions such as +H, +N, +O, +He, +Ne, +Ar, +Kr, +Xe or molecular ions.

Standard solar model

The first experiment to successfully detect cosmic neutrinos was Ray Davis's chlorine experiment, in which neutrinos were detected by observing the conversion of chlorine nuclei to radioactive argon in a large tank of perchloroethylene.

VMO-6

The squadron flew in support of Marines at Khe Sanh, Con Thien, Lao Bảo, Dong Ha, Gio Linh, The Rockpile, Vandegrift Combat Base, the Ben Hai and LZ Argon.

William R. Bennett, Jr.

He was co-inventor of the first gas laser (the helium-neon laser) at Bell Laboratories in Murray Hill, New Jersey, discovered the argon ion laser, was first to observe spectral hole burning effects in gas lasers, and created a theory of hole burning effects on laser oscillation.

X3: Terran Conflict

During the battle, a small drone steals information from a Terran station and delivers it to an Argon ship in the Pluto sector which uses a jumpdrive to escape the Solar System.
