Well, in that case, only experiment can lay the issue to rest. Get the following setup ready, and you maybe able to publish something on the AAOM.
Use a waterjacket for a CF tube and measure the amount of heat. See the design of a calorimeter for detail. Do the same with MH with comparable wattage, or use a standard unit like calorie per watt per second for comparison.
Report the result, should be a nice article.
Alternative is to dig up some spectral charts, but the analysis will not be easy due to the physics involved.
