Re: 1mev electron accelerator?



If you stop 1 MeV electrons in a high-Z target you have an x-ray tube. The
level of radiation must be directly proportional to your current. Your
current is probably very small. If your current were 1 mA you would be
heating the target at the rate of 1 kW. Cooling would be necessary for
long operations.
