.......

Colors of phosphors can be ranked from best to worst thus:
amber (a very specific color), yellow, green, orange, red, blue

This ranking comes from various research done in Europe.  The papers
can be found in a book whose title I have forgotten.  I found it searching
through the card catalog for books on human factors research.

Note that some greens are much worse than others.  The papers quote specific
phosphors.  The P3 used by the IBM monochrome monitor is good.  Whatever
is used by techtronix 4025 is pretty poor.
