TY - GEN AB - Hardly any other discovery of the nineteenth century did have such an impact on science and technology as Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen's seminal find of the X-rays. X-ray tubes soon made their way as excellent instruments for numerous applications in medicine, biology, materials science and testing, chemistry and public security. Developing new radiation sources with higher brilliance and much extended spectral range resulted in stunning developments like the electron synchrotron and electron storage ring and the freeelectron laser. This handbook highlights these developments in fifty chapters. AU - Jaeschke, Eberhard J. AU - Khan, S. AU - Schneider, Jochen R.
