    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode-ray_tube

    The only visible differences are the single electron gun, the uniform white phosphor coating, and the lack of a shadow mask. A cathode-ray tube ( CRT) is a vacuum tube containing one or more electron guns, which emit electron beams that are manipulated to display images on a phosphorescent screen. [ 2]

  3. Small-angle X-ray scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_X-ray_scattering

    Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is a small-angle scattering technique by which nanoscale density differences in a sample can be quantified. This means that it can determine nanoparticle size distributions, resolve the size and shape of (monodisperse) macromolecules , determine pore sizes, characteristic distances of partially ordered ...

  4. CT scan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CT_scan

    The main limitation of this type of CT is the bulk and inertia of the equipment (X-ray tube assembly and detector array on the opposite side of the circle) which limits the speed at which the equipment can spin. Some designs use two X-ray sources and detector arrays offset by an angle, as a technique to improve temporal resolution. [8] [9]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma_ray

    A gamma ray, also known as gamma radiation (symbol. γ. ), is a penetrating form of electromagnetic radiation arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. It consists of the shortest wavelength electromagnetic waves, typically shorter than those of X-rays. With frequencies above 30 exahertz ( 3 × 1019 Hz) and wavelengths less than 10 ...
