Abstract
An x-ray tube has a cathode and an anode arranged in a vacuum housing, wherein an electron beam emanating from the cathode is incident at a focal spot on the anode. An electromagnet is provided for deflecting the electron beam, this electromagnet having a U-shaped yoke with two legs connected by a base section with a winding surrounding the base section. The electron beam passes between the two legs. The yoke is formed by successively layered laminations disposed in respective planes disposed substantially perpendicularly to the propagation direction of the electron beam.
