Microfocus x-ray generator for certification of Kumakhov microlenses

摘要

This work was aimed at investigating the possibility of using low-power X-ray generators with pointed tube and magnetic focusing capabilities for the certification of a small-size X-ray lenses and to obtain high-density X-ray. X-ray micro-focal generator was created based on BS-13 transmission anode micro-focal tube. X-ray integral intensity from generator was established at different modes of operation, its operation stability was assessed. Application of this type of X-ray generator was proved efficient to obtain quasi-parallel and convergent high-density X-ray via Kumakhov's optics.
