Excited Gas. With Fluorescent lights, we've been experimenting with fall off on the opposite axis. It seems to work well on neon also.

Here is what I came up with.

It's actually two objects a larger spline with a shell modifier applied to  it for the glass.
then the neon material, a corona light material with a fall off map in the opacity slow.

Thanks for your example. The glass shell, is sometimes a colored glass. There's where the volume absorption comes in.
