The average power capacity of a rotating-anode X-ray generator tube is limited by the slow radiation cooling of the anode. The invention removes this limitation by rotating the entire vacuum envelope (22') so the heat can be conducted directly to the air or to a circulating liquid. The cathode (33) and anode (36') are made as figures of revolution about the axis. A stationary source of X-rays is produced by focusing a stationary spot of light (32') onto a rotating photocathode (33). The photoelectrons (34') are drawn off and focused onto a stationary spot on the rotating anode, to provide a stationary source of X-rays (40'). |
