    Abstract: An x-ray tube has a vacuum housing containing an electron-emitting cathode and an anode on which the electron beam, accelerated with an electrical field, is incident. The x-ray tube contains a magnet system which generates a main magnetic field with spring focus for deflecting and focusing the electron beam such that the focal spot on the incident surface of the anode can be azimuthally varied. A coil is located spatially separate from the main magnetic field and the alignment of the focal spot relative to the incident surface can be influenced therewith. The coil is fashioned and arranged such that a non-uniform magnetic field that effects a parallel alignment of the focal spot in the spring function is generated therewith.

    Abstract: An x-ray radiator has a housing containing a fluid coolant wherein a rotating bulb x-ray tube is rotatably seated, the rotating bulb x-ray tube having an evacuated vacuum housing containing a cathode and an anode, with the anode forming a wall of the vacuum housing and having an exterior charged by the coolant. The anode has a profiling at its exterior that enlarges the surface area contact between the exterior of the anode and the coolant. The profiling can be in the form of at least one channel proceeding from as a spiral from a central region of the anode toward its periphery.

    Abstract: An x-ray radiator has a rotary-bulb tube, whose vacuum enclosure rotates inside a radiator housing, which is filled with a liquid cooling medium, and a cooling medium conducting body is arranged between the vacuum enclosure and the radiator housing, at a distance from both of these. The cooling medium conducting body produces a flow of the cooling medium along the vacuum enclosure in the inner gap and a return flow of the cooling medium along the radiator housing in the outer gap, promoted by the rotation of the rotary-bulb tube.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a photon counting CT apparatus includes an X-ray source, a photon counting CT detector, and a calibration unit. The X-ray source includes a cathode configured to generate electrons and an anode including a plurality of targets configured to generate a plurality of characteristic X-rays having different energies. The photon counting CT detector detects X-ray photons generated by the X-ray source. The calibration unit calibrates the gain of the photon counting CT detector based on the correspondence relationship between the photon energies of the plurality of characteristic X-rays and outputs from the photon counting CT detector.
