fluorescence of atoms in nebulae

[deleted-301774]

hi,
i am very sorry if my english is not very good but i am participating to a science symposium.
i just wanted to ask if it was possible to create a mini-nebulae.
i am already searching for answers but i dont really understand if it woult be possible to put in a ball made of glass ionic atoms and then just put an ultraviolet lamp in front of it and wait to see what happens...
i am very interested in nebulaes, i think they are fascinating
well thank you already for a future answer.
