A SHIELDING DEVICE FOR X-RAY DIFFRACTION CAMERAS

Abstract

A description is given of a simple device of durable construction which was developed to prevent the scattering of x-rays between the window of an x-ray tube and the collimator of the camera. The shield was designed for Machlett x-ray tubes and Supper collimators and cameras, but it may easily be modified for most types of tubes and cameras.
