    摘要: According to the invention, at least one magnet element is provided for generating a guide magnetic field such that the electrons are guided at a spacing from the elongated anode. At least one kicker magnet is provided for generating a kicker magnetic field such that the electrons are steered onto the elongated anode in the region of the kicker magnetic field. The kicker magnet is implemented as a permanent magnet.

    摘要: In order to perform stereoradiography, an X-ray apparatus utilizes an X-ray tube having a pair of X-ray focal points. The X-ray beams are alternately irradiated from the focal points toward an image intensifier through a patient and are limited by an X-ray beam limiting device. The device shapes the irradiated X-ray beams onto a circular detection surface of the image intensifier into a polygon such as octagon. The X-ray irradiation field on the detection surface can be circumscribed to a circular input window (i.e. effective input area), preventing the field from going beyond the detection surface. Thus, direct X-ray leaking over the image intensifier is avoidable.

    摘要: The invention relates to an arrangement for generating an X-ray or gamma beam with small cross-section and variable direction, having an X-ray or gamma emitter, from the focus of which a bundle of rays emerges, and a diaphragm arrangement, which cuts out a beam from the bundle of rays and comprises a hollow-cylindrical first diaphragm body which is rotatable about its axis of symmetry and has two mutually offset helical slits on the circumference. In this arrangement, an X-ray beam with at least approximately square cross-section is cut out on a relatively long hollow-cylindrical body with small diameter by the slits winding around the diaphragm body in at least one turn each and being shaped in such a way that at least one straight line runs through the slits towards the focus, the position of which line can be varied by turning the diaphragm body.

    摘要: A high speed communication apparatus for a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner utilizes large diameter slip rings to permit continuous rotation of a rotatable gantry. A communication signal is applied at a first point on one slip ring, and is terminated by a resistive termination at a point 180.degree. opposite the driving point. The communication signal may then be received at any point on the slip ring. The drive and termination connections to the slip ring may be made by brushes, with the receive connection being made by a physical connection to the slip ring. Alternately, the drive and terminate connection may be made by physical contact, with the receive connection being made by a brush.

    摘要: In one embodiment, an x-ray neutron instrument includes an x-ray or neutron lens (10) disposed in a path for x-rays or neutrons in the instrument. The lens (10) comprises multiple elongate open-ended channels (12) arranged across the path to receive and pass segments of an x-ray or neutron beam (14). The channels (12) have side walls reflective to x-rays or neutrons of the beam incident at a grazing angle less than the critical grazing angle for total external reflection of the x-rays or neutrons, whereby to cause substantial focusing or collimation and/or concentration of the thus reflected x-rays or neutrons. In a different embodiment, a condensing-collimating channel-cut monochromator comprises a channel (22) in a perfect-crystal or near perfect-crystal body (20). This channel (22) is formed with lateral surfaces (24, 26) which multiply reflect, by Bragg diffraction from selected Bragg planes, an incident beam (28) which has been collimated at least to some extent. The lateral surfaces (24, 26) are at a finite angle to each other whereby to monochromatize and spatially condense the beam (28) as it is multiply reflected, without substantial loss of reflectivity or transmitted power.
