Describe a bremsstrahlung target interaction. | show 🗑
|
||||
show | An incident electron interacts with an inner shell electron, knocking out the inner shell electron and continuing in a slightly different direction, which creates a hole in the inner shell, making the shell unstable.
🗑

What is the average keV of the primary beam as compared to the kVp? | show 🗑
|
||||
show | When mAs is changed the result is a change in the amplitude of the emission graph.
🗑
|
||||
What effect does changing kVp have on the total x-ray emission spectrum? | show 🗑
|
||||
Characteristic Peak | show 🗑
|

Incident Electrons | show 🗑
|
||||
show | The actions that take place when the electrons strike their target or focal spot.
🗑
|
||||
How are x-ray photons produced? | show 🗑

|
||||
show | X-rays produced when a projectioe e- is slowed and its direction is changed by the electric field of a target atom
🗑
|
||||
show | when an outer-shell e- fills an inner-shell void
🗑
