The effect of temperature on phosphorescence

AI Thread Summary
Increasing temperature is believed to decrease the lifetime of phosphorescence, though further explanation is not provided. A Google search using the specific problem statement yielded a relevant article from Nature as the second result, which may contain the needed information. The discussion indicates that the inquiry is related to homework, prompting a suggestion to move the thread to a general technical forum if it's not school-related. Participants express interest in verifying the search results and finding answers. The Nature article is recommended for further reading to clarify the effects of temperature on phosphorescence.

Homework Statement
What effect does heat have on a substance with phosphorescence properties?
Relevant Equations
...
I had read somewhere that as the temperature increases, its lifetime decreases. But there was no further explanation. Of course, I don't know if it's true yet.

I did a Google search using your Problem Statement ('What effect does heat have on a substance with phosphorescence properties?'), and the 2nd hit gave the direct answer. Can you try that same search?

Also, is this really a schoolwork question or just something you were wondering about? I can move your thread to the general technical forums if it's not for schoolwork.

Did Google really give a direct answer?! I tried but failed. I'd better try again.
No, this is a homework.:smile:

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
