Its Hydrogen 3, a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. Used in bombs to increase yield (if you're not chemistry minded, it gets confusing fast.) For most of us, it makes glass tubes glow if they're coated with stuff, kind of like a florscent bulb without electricity. The most effective coating glows the green we're accustomed to seeing. Other things glow different colors, but aren't as good.
The point I was trying to make is that for some users, the 12.33 year half life means nothing. The good ones last beyond that if used in near total darkness. I had trijicon's on my one and only glock (a mistake never to be repeated by me.) The green glow was the best thing about that gun. Well, selling it was probably the best, now that I think about it.
