Experimental study on hard x-rays emitted from metre-scale negative discharges in air [PDF]
, 2012 We investigate the development of metre long negative discharges and focus on their x-ray emissions. We describe appearance, timing and spatial distribution of the x-rays. They appear in bursts of nanosecond duration mostly in the cathode area.

Electron beam welder X-rays its own welds [PDF]
, 1967 Beam of an electron beam welder X rays its own welds, enabling rapid weld quality checks to be made without removing the work from the vacuum chamber. A tungsten target produces X rays when hit by the beam.

On the Intensity of Total Scattering of X-Rays
, 1929 We shall here investigate theoretically the intensity of total scattering of X-rays by atoms distributed at random, e. g. , the scattering by the atoms of a monatomic gas.

ACTION OF X-RAYS ON MAMMALIAN CELLS
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1956 The effects of x-irradiation have been quantitatively studied on single cells of a human cervical carcinoma (HeLa) under conditions such that 100 per cent of the unirradiated cells reproduce in isolation to form macroscopic colonies.

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.Abstract Purpose Histotripsy is a focal tumor therapy that utilizes focused ultrasound (US) to mechanically destroy tissue. To overcome visualization limitations of diagnostic US‐guidance, C‐arm cone beam CT (CBCT)‐guided histotripsy is being developed, for which a mobile C‐arm could increase accessibility. CBCT‐guided histotripsy uses a phantom with a

X-ray phase contrast imaging of biological specimens with tabletop synchrotron radiation [PDF]
, 2011 Since their discovery in 1896, x-rays have had a profound impact on science, medicine and technology. Here we show that the x-rays from a novel tabletop source of bright coherent synchrotron radiation can be applied to phase contrast imaging of ...
