    (54) Colour display tube with coma correction


    (57) Colour display tube comprising an electron gun system (5) of the "in-line" type and an electromagnetic deflection unit. This unit is provided with coma correctors 14 and 14' at its gun side, which correctors, viewed from the gun system, provide a pincushion-shaped vertical deflection field component and a barrel-shaped vertical deflection field component. These components are used to reduce the "green droop" (= anisotropic Y coma) in the corners and at the ends of the display screen axes to an equal extent without the spot shape of the outer beams being influenced detrimentally. The correction is realized by two magnetic six-pole fields.
