2. Artificial sunlight - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_sunlight

   Artificial sunlight is useful in treating and preventing seasonal affective disorder (also known as winter depression, which causes depression symptoms specifically in winter), [3] and delayed sleep phase syndrome, in which the circadian rhythm (the rhythmic alternation between daylight and nighttime behavior and bodily states) is disturbed and the person falls asleep much later than he or she ...

3. Xenon arc lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenon_arc_lamp

   A xenon arc lamp is a highly specialized type of gas discharge lamp, an electric light that produces light by passing electricity through ionized xenon gas at high pressure. It produces a bright white light to simulate sunlight , with applications in movie projectors in theaters , in searchlights , and for specialized uses in industry and research.

4. Solar simulator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_simulator

   Laboratory class AAA solar simulator. A solar simulator (also artificial sun or sunlight simulator) is a device that provides illumination approximating natural sunlight.The purpose of the solar simulator is to provide a controllable indoor test facility under laboratory conditions.

5. Dawn simulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dawn_simulation

   Dawn simulation generally uses light sources that range in illuminance from 100 to 300 lux, while bright light boxes are usually in the 10,000-lux range. Approximately 19% [4] of patients discontinue post-awakening bright light therapy due to inconvenience. Because the entire treatment is complete before awakening, dawn simulation may be a more ...

6. Hybrid solar lighting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_solar_lighting

   The collectors adjust to aim the sunlight onto 127 optical fibers which are conducted into a single chord. The optical fibers are flexible and can be connected into hybrid light fixtures that are joined to diffusing rods that disperse the light. A single collector can power up to eight hybrid light fixtures covering 1,000 square feet (93 m 2).

7. UV-B lamps - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UV-B_lamps

   UV-B lamps are lamps that emit a spectrum of ultraviolet light with wavelengths ranging from 290–320 nanometers. This spectrum is also commonly called the biological spectrum due to the human body's sensitivity to light of such a wavelength. [1] UV-B light does not tan the skin very much, compared to the UV-A lamps that are used in tanning beds.
