Improved compact X-ray sources

The essential part of this set up is the source of artificial gamma radiation. A principal advantage of that kind of source for gamma logging is the possibility of remote handling excluding the danger in case of an accident. The source consequences was designed for the most difficult application case-a deep borehole with a high temperatures and high pressure. Several variants of vacuum tubes were researched, the results are introduced. The up-to-date methods of researching radiations ecological purity requirement for the geophysical devices with radioisotopes sources stimulates researches of 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
