Abstract
A metal jet x-ray tube is proposed, that is affected less than conventional tubes by the problem of the power density at the point of incidence of the electron beam on the anode component. To this end, the metal jet x-ray tube provides a metal jet as an anode component that is so thin that this metal jet only partly decelerates an electron beam incident thereon. Moreover, the metal jet of the anode component is at least embedded or dissolved in a single second material that passes electrons relatively well and is heat absorbing.
