== Xenon and dopping ==<br />
<br />
The inhalation of xenon induces the [[Hypoxia-inducible factor 1, alpha subunit]] and down stream activates the production of [[erythropoietin]]. This method is used as a general method to improve the abilities of athletes.<ref>{{cite news | url = http://www.economist.com/news/science-and-technology/21595890-obscure-gas-improves-athletes-performance-breathe-it| title =Breathe it in | publisher = the Economist | date =Feb 8th 2014}}</ref><br />

== Anaesthetic properties of isotopes ==<br />
<br />
In ''New Scientist'' of 2025-01-04, [[Hartmut Neven]] says in [https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg26435241-000-can-we-use-quantum-computers-to-test-a-radical-consciousness-theory/ an interview] that different isotopes have different anaesthetic properties, I saw nothing about this in either section here. Should we say something (properly sourced) about this? [[User:PJTraill|PJTraill]] ([[User talk:PJTraill|talk]]) 12:21, 19 January 2025 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== Denser solid floats?! ==<br />
<br />
The image caption says "A layer of solid xenon floating on top of liquid xenon inside a high voltage apparatus (the solid is more dense than the liquid)"<br />
<br />
Surely it's not actually floating, but mechanically suspended from its shape in the vessel, or something? [[User:SleekWeasel|SleekWeasel]] ([[User talk:SleekWeasel|talk]]) 08:37, 21 October 2025 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I agree that the caption is puzzling. Maybe @[[User:Solypewo|Solypewo]] knows what the issue is? In the meantime I'll remove the image. [[User:Johnjbarton|Johnjbarton]] ([[User talk:Johnjbarton|talk]]) 16:33, 21 October 2025 (UTC)<br />
::Agreed that the caption was confusing as the denser solid xenon is indeed not floating but instead building on the electrode. I added the image back and edited the caption to say "A layer of solid xenon building inside a high voltage apparatus. The layer of solid xenon (white color) is surrounded by liquid xenon (transparent)." [[User:Solypewo|Solypewo]] ([[User talk:Solypewo|talk]]) 20:45, 1 January 2026 (UTC)<br />

== Proposed merge of [[Xenonium]] into [[Xenon]] ==<br />
<br />
as per [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Xenonium]] [[User:Star Mississippi|<span style="color:#be33ff;">Star</span>]] [[User talk:Star Mississippi|<span style="color:#ff33da;">Mississippi</span>]] 04:09, 12 February 2026 (UTC)<br />

:'''Support''' I think the deletion discussion is consensus to proceed. [[User:Johnjbarton|Johnjbarton]] ([[User talk:Johnjbarton|talk]]) 16:05, 12 February 2026 (UTC)<br />
:'''Oppose'''. This is the wrong merge target. If we include the nom (which we should!), the discussion at the AfD page is 2:1 in favor of merging [[xenonium]] to [[xenon compounds]] over [[xenon]]. [[Xenonium]] is obscure and would be preferable to cover in only the more specialized article. Digging deeper, even though [[Xenon compound]] was [[WP:SPLIT]] from [[Xenon#Compounds]] in [[Special:Diff/1195199401|19:22, 12 January 2024]] ([[Special:FindComment/c-YBG-20240103011600-Praseodymium-141-20240102201100|split discussion]]), the parent section hasn't been trimmed significantly, a potential source of confusion. But we can at least avoid cramming even more unwanted information into it now. [[User:Preimage|Preimage]] ([[User talk:Preimage|talk]]) 00:20, 13 February 2026 (UTC)<br />
