| May 15 at 16:16 | comment | added | Buttonwood | @entropy Cathode rays are the result of discharging electrons on gas molecules (thus, i) light is seen already between anode and cathode, ii) there can be multiple/different sorts of charged molecules generated). Anode rays are the result of electron impact on the surface of a solid target (hence reference to the conventional X-ray tube, though I presume today it equally could be a liquid (microfocus / molten metal jet X-ray tube), too). | |
