There are different variations of each lighting technology, but plasma emissions from metal halide have a binomial frequency distribution just like the sun, because the sun is also plasma of course. The standard deviation of the frequencyvaries, mostly with internal pressure, and is slightly steeper than sunlight.

Incandescents produce a less-steep frequency distribution with marked low-side kurtosis. A higher proportion of their output as IR than the sun, and a higher proportion of that as far-IR.
