@@PyrotechnicalScience Can you show how you can wrap a magnet in copper coil..not much needed and can then make light globes light up with 0 power pls 😊
I used to be in the TV trade when colour was just coming in. Some early hybrid colour sets used a PD500 triode EHT stabiliser valve. These were known to produce X-rays and were inside an enclosure which had an interlock so that the set couldn't be switched on if the cover was not in place.
As you are running the tube with a cold cathode you may improved the focus reversing cathode and anode. The cathode is wont like the electron bombardment much but you may get a better focal point for x-ray generation.
Cool! I tried a similar setup but used some old Soviet tubes and an intensifying screen. I think it must require longer exposure or the “hard” x-rays produced by commercial tubes to get a decent image with my setup. That DIY x-ray spectrometry idea sounds really interesting. Looking forward to future x-ray projects!
I’ve been experimenting with this exact tube and I got really good results out of it using a Cockcroft Walton multiplier to step up the voltages to make higher energy X-rays. I’m going to release a video about it soon, maybe what I’ve figured out might help.
did you use a intensifying screen? Or film? I might give it another go with higher voltages and some resistors so the voltage doesn’t sag so much and get some more penetrating X-rays.
@@PyrotechnicalScience I was using an intensifying screen however I have the same kind of film as you, I just haven’t tried it out yet. I’m really close to honing in on a good range but I just figured out last night where the upper limit on how much voltage you can use in cold cathode mode is 😅 I wish my variable DC power supply wasn’t currently broken because I’d be able to figure out exactly where it is. All I know right now is nothing of practical use happens above 150kV I think I’m currently blasting it with close to 200KV if my arcs are anything to go by.
3:45 Just to clarify: I'm not a big fan of this explanation as there is nothing which makes the electron magically "dump its energy by means of an x-ray" because of the conservation of energy. Sure, that is what follows from the theory, but it's not that the electron somehow decided to read the textbook and wants to comply. A moving electron will generate a steady magnetic field, e.g. think of electrons in a constant DC circuit (ignoring what really happens, drift velocity, etc. for the sake of the example). Any change in electron velocity - no matter how or why - will generate a changing magnetic field, which in turn creates a changing electrical field and this cycle continues as the propagation of an EM wave. You could somehow visualize it in this case that e.g. a collection of "time snapshots" of a decelerating electron's "momentarily constant" electrical field, will eventually, when added over time, have generated a small sinusoidal magnetic field "ripple" (as opposed to a straight magnetic field generated by an electron moving at constant speed), which will propagate as an EM wave. Do this with billions of electrons and you get your EM beam. Another analogy would be a garden hose spraying water at a constant rate. When moving the hose at constant speed e.g. left to right, you will only observe a linear pattern. Now shake it rapidly left to right, essentially causing a series of accelerations/decelerations, and you will observe curved patterns at the points of acceleration/deceleration. This is basically what happens in an antenna where electrons oscillate. It is also easy to see now that a harder electron deceleration will also generate a higher frequency EM wave, carrying higher energy. Hence the voltage, not the current, applied to the tube determines electron acceleration/energy and will eventually determine EM beam wavelength/energy and it's also the reason why you can't generate x-rays using lower voltages.
Hmm .. I wonder what I'm doing wrong. Got my hands on a used dental tube .. Filament on a small variac until it was bright white, anode on a flyback from an old Trinitron running 15KHz. Attempted to image a dime on a piece of thin card stock as proof of concept, in the dark, with glow in the dark safety tape as a detector .. nothing. I had assumed my anode voltage was too low - but now I wonder if the tape simply isn't sensitive to x-rays.
I want to gather 50 of those old CRT TV's, 50 car batteries, 50 inverters, and make them work with 1 remote control. This is DIRT cheap now and you make over 1 MILLION volts of power at SIGNIFICANT power levels. The capacitance of a CRT is huge and the voltages are about 20 kV. Imagine what you could do with 1 MILLION volts?
I did this too. Really fun activity. I was putting 120k into it initially, but then got a Geiger counter and had to voluntarily stop playing with x-rays cuz health n shit
I had an old wehrmacht compass laying 70cm next to me for the last 7 years. Had it even in my pocket from time to time for hiking. I cant remember but I HOPE i never opend the thing... Turns out it had radium paint applied on the compass needle. I noticed it weeks ago with a cheap geiger counter.(GMC 300E) I got scared around 400CPM and I dont know if it would have gone higher up (probally as I have seen other compasses with much higher counts) A few centimeters next to it nothing more but background. But how bad was it? As I have read online this things pump out radon gas.
are you into fusion reactors, try static electric charge field high potential ion x-ray striker type vacuum tube ion accelerator, ions are deut and target is lith plate, deut is gas ionized at a positive terminal sphere, van der graaf or any other type as the potential field (also current type spin generator, but not related to this x-ray tech, even if the spin ions create x-rays or more by brehmstalung acceleration/deceleration radio photons)
the radial spin dc x-ray/radio/radar generator is really fun, the arc spins lol, should be also partial vacuum or almost full, to have the most speed, least collisions
@@PyrotechnicalScience in that case, sorta are for sure! Making a cake from scratch doesn't mean you grow and grind your own wheat, have a cow, raise chickens and press oil!! Can't wait to see!
Anyone else just a tiny bit disappointed there’s no X-ray of a thumb or finger? I mean, you’re smart dude, I’m sure a contraption could be built to limit your exposure to the rest of your body. Just sayin….
This didnt go down too well when William Osman made a DIY x-ray machine, folks got very upsetty spaghetti. Personally I find it cool as hell tho!
Yeah people got mad because “invisible radiation scary”,but glad you enjoyed the video!

yep radial acceleration = constant radio wave generation, like a micro wave
no mechanical parts, only arc plasma spinning in no-moving parts, same for the linear static ion acceleration field, no moving parts
so try lenses for x-rays, concentrating etc
yes you can use a slit or shade, also
Impressive! If you are doing this much do not forget radiation safety!
