PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an X-ray generating method for obtaining output power exceeding the limit with a conventional rotary anticathode X-ray generator, and to provide a rotary anticathode X-ray generator. SOLUTION: An electron beam is radiated to the surface of the rotary anticathode. The portion of the rotary anticathode radiated by the electron beam is heated to near or over a boiling point of the rotary anticathode. With the rotary anticathode being dissolved at least partly, an X-ray is generated from the rotary anticathode. Then a centrifugal movement is applied to the portion of the rotary anticathode radiated by the electron beam, from the surface to the inner part. The portion is supported by a predetermined structure provided inside the rotary anticathode. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
