Abstract :
Nowadays, the ecological purity requirement for the geophysical devices with radioisotopes sources stimulates research into other kinds of sources. In this connection, the sources of X-ray radiation represent an attractive alternative. Electron and ions acquire a high energy and produce X-rays with a relatively high efficiency by interaction with different materials. In this work, a principally new source using a radiation generator is proposed.
