ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for producing an x-ray beam in a computed tomography apparatus allows a scanning of the annular anode by the electron beam to ensue without any gap around the entire circumference of the anode. The electron beam is deflected by kick magnets from an injection circle onto a working circle and, proceeding from the working circle, onto the annular anode for causing an x-ray beam to be emitted from the anode as the point of incidence of the electron beam on the anode moves around the anode circumference.
