Abstract: A rotating anode (10) has an improved separator (52) arranged within a coolant passage (50) which is formed inside the rotating anode. A cylindrical target has an outer periphery whose axial length (L3) is in a range between 20 and 100 millimeters. The separator (52) has a proximal surface (82), a distance (G) between the proximal surface (82) and a must-cooled surface (92) being in a range between 0.1 and 3.0 millimeters. The axial length (L2) of the proximal surface (82) is not greater than five millimeters. Thus, since the axial length (L2) of the proximal surface (82) is set to be small, the load of a rotary driving source would be not so large even with a high-speed rotation of the rotating anode (10). When using an electric motor as the rotary driving source, it is not necessary to exchange the capacity of a motor diver for a larger one.

Abstract translation: 旋转阳极（10）具有设置在冷却剂通道（50）内的改进的分离器（52），其形成在旋转阳极内部。 圆柱形靶具有外周，其轴向长度（L3）在20和100毫米之间的范围内。 分离器（52）具有近端表面（82），近端表面（82）和必须冷却的表面（92）之间的距离（G）在0.1和3.0毫米之间的范围内。 近端面（82）的轴向长度（L2）不大于5毫米。 因此，由于近端面（82）的轴向长度（L2）设定得较小，所以即使旋转阳极（10）的高速旋转，旋转驱动源的负荷也不会变大。 当使用电动机作为旋转驱动源时，不需要更大的电动机的电动机的容量。

Abstract: Presented systems and methods facilitate efficient and effective generation and delivery of radiation. A radiation generation system can comprise: a particle beam gun, a high energy dissipation anode target (HEDAT); and a liquid anode control component. In some embodiments, the particle beam gun generates an electron beam. The HEDAT includes a solid anode portion (HEDAT-SAP) and a liquid anode portion (HEDAT-LAP) that are configured to receive the electron beam, absorb energy from the electron beam, generate a radiation beam, and dissipate heat. The radiation beam can include photons that can have radiation characteristics (e.g., X-ray wavelength, ionizing capability, etc.). The liquid anode control component can control a liquid anode flow to the HEDAT. The HEDAT-SAP and HEDAT-LAP can cooperatively operate in radiation generation and their configuration can be selected based upon contribution of respective HEDAT-SAP and the HEDAT-LAP characteristics to radiation generation.

Abstract: An imaging module includes a plurality of cathodes and respective gates, each cathode configured to generate a separate beam of electrons directed across a vacuum chamber and each gate matched to at least one respective cathode to enable and disable each separate beam of electrons from being directed across the vacuum chamber. A target anode is fixed within the vacuum chamber and arranged to receive the separate beam of electrons from each of the plurality of cathodes and, therefrom, generate a beam of x-rays. A deflection system is arranged between the plurality of cathodes and the target anode to generate a variable magnetic field to control a path followed by each of the separate beams of electrons to the target anode.
