ABSTRACT:
A rotating anode for an X-ray tube is constructed with a broad rim on to which the radiation - exciting electron beam is focused from a direction perpendicular to the axis of rotation. In order to distribute the thermal loading over the surface of the rim a transverse scanning motion is applied to the electron beam. Viewing the source conventionally from a direction nearly parallel to the axis of rotation the scanning spot is required to appear stationary and this is achieved by forming the surface of the anode rim in a uniform pattern of transverse channels. The scanning waveform must conform generally to the cross-section of the channels and the frequency and phase of the scanning motion must bear a defined relationship to the rate of rotation of the channel pattern.
