A Compact X-ray Generator Using a Nanostructured Field Emission Cathode and a Microstructured Transmission Anode
We report the design, fabrication, and preliminary characterization of a compact Xray generator for improved X-ray absorption imaging that uses a nanostructured field emission cathode (FEC) as the electron source and a microstructured transmission anode as the X-ray generating element. FECs consume less power, respond faster, and tolerate lower vacuum than thermionic cathodes used in convention...
متن کاملX-Ray Background Fluctuations
Minor Ha activity, consisting of small brightenings and small, surgelike spikes, was observed to take place above an active center at the solar limb in good time-association with small fluctuations in the soft X-ray background flux, suggesting that even small dynamical events seen optically are associated with coronal heating. The ratio of Ha flux to soft X-ray flux in some of the surges was ap...
متن کاملInGrid-based X-ray detector for low background searches
An X-ray photon detector based on the highly granular readout of an InGrid is described. This gaseous detector, based on a highly pixelized readout chip with an integrated Micromegas grid, allows for a topological analysis of each event and, thus, a distinction between a charged track and a photon conversion is possible in most cases. Because of the high granularity, an energy resolution of 5.2...
متن کاملpn-CCDs in a Low-Background Environment: Detector Background of the CAST X-ray Telescope
The CAST experiment at CERN (European Organization of Nuclear Research) searches for axions from the sun. The axion is a pseudoscalar particle that was motivated by theory thirty years ago, with the intention to solve the strong CP problem. Together with the neutralino, the axion is one of the most promising dark matter candidates. The CAST experiment has been taking data during the last two ye...
متن کاملU-shape rotating anti-cathode compact X-ray generator: 20 times stronger than the commercially available X-ray source
A new type of U-shape anti-cathode X-ray generator in which the inner surface of a cylindrical target is irradiated by an electron beam has been made by modifying a conventional rotating anti-cathode X-ray generator whose brightness in the catalog is 12 kW mm(-2). The target material (Cu), target radius (50 mm) and rotating speed (6,000 r.p.m.) were not changed in this modification. A brightnes...
