OSCILLOGRAPHIC STUDY OF DISCHARGE IN PULSED X-RAY TUBES,

Abstract

The discharge in cold-emission pulsed X-ray tubes is studied at voltages of 100-300 kV. The research was conducted by means of a pulse oscillograph developed by the authors, with a driven sweep and a maximum recording speed of 40 cm/sec. The discharge-current oscillograms have disclosed oscillations of frequency = 10 megacycles per second, and a zone of retarded increase of the current (a 'step'). The effect of gas in the tube and that of the parameters of the system on the pulsed discharge are also discussed. (Author)
