x2x3x2 -- Re bulb types.
Xenon is one of the inert gasses that can be used to fill a bulb. A halogen gas (such as bromine) can be added to cause a redeposition of a portion of evaporated (read "lost") tungsten back on the filament at high temperatures. This is done to extend filament life. There's a brief discussion of the tungsten-halide cycle included in the write-up HERE.
