Abstract
The invention relates to an X-ray tube, an X-ray source and an X-ray facility. The X-ray tube may have a vacuum housing having at least one side surface, the vacuum housing comprises a cathode and an anode for generating X-rays. An acceleration path for emitted electrons is provided between the cathode and the anode via an applied high voltage. A first of the at least one side surface has a first electrically conductive housing section having a temperature dependent electrical conductivity so that an essentially linear potential curve is set along the acceleration path.
