Observed greenish glow emanating from barium platinocynide screen kept at a distance. when he interpose his hand unintentionally between the tube and screen he could detect the image of his bones in the shadow. He at once realized the significance of this finding and established the property of penetration. he then covered the tube with black paper and florescent persisted which further confirms the property of penetration.

Electromagnetic spectrum
Unit of measurement in x-ray region is Å and nm. 1 Å = 10-10 m, 1 nm = 10 Å = 10-9 m X-ray wavelengths are in the range 10-0.01 Å. Wavelength of visible light ~ 6000 Å.
X-rays are electromagnetic radiation of exactly the same nature as light but of very much shorter wavelength

Properties of electromagnetic radiation
• Electromagnetic radiation → can be defined as propagation of wave like energy (witout mass) through space or matter .
![Page 8: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Electromagnetic radiation
According to the classical theory Electromagnetic
radiation can be considered as wave
motion .
According to the quantum theory electromagnetic radiation can also be
considered as a particles called photons

Wave concept of electromagnetic radiation
•All EM radiations travel with the speed of light 186000miles/sec, 3×10ˆ8 m/sec but they differ in wavelength •Wavelength (λ) – distance between 2 successive crests / trough •Frequency (ν) – number of crests /cycle per second (Hz) • (λ) wavelength ↓ (ν) frequency ↑•EM travel with the speed of light c , c=λν•Wave concept of EMR explains why radiation may be reflected , refracted, diffracted and polarized .
If each wave has length λ and ν waves pass a given point in unit time
velocity of wave is v = λ× ν

Particle concept of electromagnetic radiation
•Short EM waves like XRAYS react with matter as if they are particles rather than waves.•These particles are discrete bundles of energy and each bundle is called quantum /photon.•Photon travel at the speed of light.•Amount of energy carried by each photon depends on frequency of radiation. •If frequency doubled energy doubled .•Particle concept can explain the interaction with matter like photoelectric and Compton effect .
Energy calculated E=hν h= Planck's constant (4.13×10 ˆ-18 Kev sec )

Relationship between wavelength and energy
Relationship between wavelength and frequencyν= c/λ
c – velocity of light (~3×108 m/s) also E= hνInstead of ν
E =hc/λ ( h×c = 1.24)
• Energy of photon =ev
•X-ray measured in kilo ev , 1Kev = 1000 ev
E= 1.24/λ

X-Ray Machine
The heart of x ray machine is made of x ray tube and its power supply.
![Page 13: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
X-ray tube
Basic elements of an X Ray source assembly
![Page 14: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Glass tube :- the x ray tube is lead berrylium glass in which
are mounted cathode and anode assembly. The x ray is evacuated because 1. presence of air will
obstruct the flow electron and reduce there kinetic energy
2. prsence of oxygen will oxdized the tungsten fillment.
Lead beryllium glass surrounded by lead shield except that area of port lead shield is used
because 1. it absorb all the radiation except the useful beam 2. provide earthing to the x ray tube to prevent chances of electric shock 3.prevent
physical damage to the tube

![Page 16: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Negative Cathode
Principally composed of 2 parts 1. filament 2.focusing cup
Filament made of tungsten wire 0.2 mm diameter coiled to form a vertical spiral 0.2 cm diameter and 1 cm length
![Page 17: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Tungsten
1. high atomic no. (Z=74) more electrons are given out i.e high thermionic emission 2. high melting point(3380 c ) so that filament should not melt 3. low vapor pressure at high temperature so that it will not vaporize 4. Thin wire 5. Long life expectancy
![Page 18: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Molybdenum focusing cup :-function of molybdenum focusing cup is to restrict the size of electron cloud and also serve as cathode and help in repelling electrons (because of negative charge )
![Page 19: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
When Current flows – wire heated
Absorbs thermal energy – electrons move a small distance from the surface of metal
This escape is referred to as thermionic emission
Thermionic emission
![Page 20: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Thermionic emission
Emission of electrons resulting from the absorption of thermal energy – thermionic emission Electron cloud surrounding the filament produced by thermionic emission is termed “Edison effect”
![Page 21: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Anode :- anode is made up of tungsten target embedded in a copper stem .tungsten is preffered as a target material because it satisfy the requirement of ideal target material i.e. 1. high atomic number z=74 which gives rise to increase interactions between incoming electrons and tungsten atoms thereby generating more number of x ray photons 2.high melting point (3380c) so that anode does not melt, despite the heat produced there 3. low vapour pressure at high temperature so that tungsten does not evaporate such vapours if present are likely to line the tube and give rise to excessive filtration & also acts as source of radiation giving rise to stray radiation .
![Page 22: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why tungsten mounted on copper stem :- tungsten does not have good thermal conductivity hence it is mounted on copper stem which is good conducter of heat the heat generated at anode dissipated by : 1 conduction: through copper stem . 2.convection: through oil surrounding the tube 3.Radiation: through the radiator device attached to copper stem
![Page 23: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Roatating Anode Anode is in the form of
copper disc 7.5 – 10 cm in diameter focal spot is in the form of 0.6 mm ring incorporated in copper disc During exposure the copper disc is rotated so that at each time different focal spot get bombarded by electrons .
![Page 24: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Line focus principle
The actual focal spot size is 1X 3mm however the anode is angled at 20 degree to x ray beam this causes the effective focal spot to be 1X1 mm . So that rectangular focal spot appeare as square this is done to facilitate the following :-1. heat distribution across larger surface at the anode at the same time. 2.sharp image because because rectangular focal spot appears as square when viewed in the direction of the central ray (smaller the focal spot sharper the image )
![Page 25: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Heel effect
Intensity of beam depends on the angle at which the x-rays are emitted from the focal spot
![Page 27: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Heel effect
Intensity of exposure on anode side < cathode side
of tube
Heel effect less noticeable with large focus-film distance
Heel effect is less with smaller films

Processes of x-ray generation
When high speed electrons lose energy in the target of the x-ray tube
2 processes of x-ray generation
General Characteristic
General radiation ( Bremsstrahlung) • High speed electrons with nucleus of the tungsten atom
Characteristic radiation • High sped electrons with the electrons in the shell of tungsten atoms
![Page 31: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Bremsstrahlung ( braking radiation )
![Page 32: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Brems radiation- Polyenergetic

Typical x-ray pattern
![Page 36: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Circuit of x tube :- it is divided into two parts : 1 filament circuit (to produce electrons by heating filament )2 . Cathode anode circuit (to provide the potential difference of 65000 volts) 1. filament circuit uses a step down transformer because only 10v is required to heat the fillment whereas supply is 220 v2. cathode – anode circuit has a step down transformer because voltage has to be stepped up 220v to 65000v 3. autotransformer which has a kvp selectors is used to regulate kvp a certain degree and it has a single coil which is divided by single pointer
![Page 38: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Rectification :- Is the conversion of alternating current (AC) to direct
current direct current ( DC) during the first phase of AC cycle cathode is negatively charged and anode is positevely charged electrons hit against the anode and x rays are produced but when current changes in direction during second phase catode becomes positively charged therefore electrons present at anode (because the thermionic emission secondary to heat produced ) travel backwards & hit against the fillament , thereby causing burnout of the filament such a phenomenon takes place in general x ray machine.
![Page 39: X ray machine vaibhav](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081505/58f291ed1a28ab2c3d8b4571/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
In dental x ray machine however the amount of heat produced at the anode does not give rise to excess of electrons as result when current changes its direction there are no electrons at the anode to travel back to cathode and hence dental x ray tube is called as self rectifying
