Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004114353A1] The invention relates to an X-ray generator tube comprising a target carrier system which enables the incline of the radiating surface of the target to be regulated in relation to the electronic beam in order to determine the intensity of the X-ray emission and the resolution of the tube according to the desired application. For high-energy applications requiring a cooling circuit, the arrangement of said cooling circuit also enables the geometry thereof to be essentially improved in order to essentially increase its efficiency. The invention further relates to a plurality of arrangements of the cooling circuit, and to the method for producing the same.
