The panel is made of glass, such as a tint material, a ring-like magnet assembly (PCM) for convergence adjustment is provided outside of the neck, a first electromagnetic quadrupole coil is further attached to a portion outside of the neck for causing an electron beam spacing to change or vary in accordance with the deflection angle, and a second electromagnetic quadrupole coil is attached to a deflection yoke. The distance between adjacent ones of three cathodes of an electron gun is determined to be greater than or equal to 6.0 millimeters (mm).
