This behavior of alumina that you are rendering could be just another assumption. There needs to be many cross checks and calibrations to find out what assumptions are reliable and which observations are not reliable. There seems to be many weird things that are going on inside the reactor like

Furthermore… If the grade of Inconel was 625 or 617 - either or which contains about ¼ of the alloy as chromium, then the ppm “bleed” from these wires into an alumina coating or paste could provide redish phosphorescent color. It requires very little chrome for a ruby glow. We should know
