Manganese (Mn) in plasma
Manganese lays its ring out in bands: a green core, a cyan shell around it, white where the ring burns hardest, and a peach fringe on the outside. The cyan is manganese doing the work, its brightest visible lines cluster between 446 and 482 nm. What makes this one unusual is that the layering holds: most fills churn, this one keeps the same onion of colours frame after frame.
Mn requires a lot of decontamination by consequent heating up and flushing with Ar until blue-green shades start to show up. The vibrance is magnificent, but quickly relaxes back to buffer gas
