An x-ray tube: motor rotates tungsten to prevent over- heating
X-rays are produced 2 ways in an x-ray tube: x-rays • Electron from • cathode knocks • an inner e- out, • and an outer e- • falls down to the • empty orbital, • emitting an x-ray. 2. Electron ricochets around nucleus. As it decelerates, x-rays are emitted.
CAT (or CT) scans – Computed Axial Tomography As the x-ray source and detector rotate, a 3-D picture is built up x-ray detector x-ray source As the patient moves through, many slices are taken….

cloud chambers: use supersaturated gases
Bubble chamber: 1 Fill a large cylinder with a liquid heated to just below its boiling point. 2. As particles enter the chamber, a piston suddenly decreases its pressure, and the liquid becomes superheated. 3. Charged particles create an ionization track, around which the liquid vaporizes, forming microscopic bubbles.
