Abstract :
The transmission and power enhancement of X-rays in cylindrical waveguides are investigated as functions of the length and bore diameter. Measurements were made at a wavelength of 1.54 Ã… using hollow, lead glass tubing. Discrepancies between the observed values and theoretical predictions may be ascribed to surface roughness and variations in the guide dimensions.
