Abstract:Experimental results on X-ray emission characteristics from the cathode material in the high-current Glow Discharge (GD) are presented. The X-ray emission ranging 0.6–6.0 keV and more with the dose rate up to 0.01 J/s has been registered. Two emission modes were obtained in the experiments: (1) diffusion X-rays were observed as separate X-ray bursts (up to 5 × 105 bursts a second and up to 106 X-ray quanta in a burst); (2) X-rays in the form of laser micro-beams were registered (up to 104 beams per second and up to 1010 X-ray of quanta in a beam, angular divergence being up to 10-4, the duration of separate laser beam about τ = 3 × 10-13-3 × 10-14 s, the estimated separate beam power of 107–108 W). The emission of the X-ray laser beams occurred during the GD operation, and, after the GD current switch off.
