Health | The energy of e-beams and of x-rays is measured in the amount of energy developed by the electron gun, and is measured in electron volts (eV). The usual apparatus runs at 5 to 10 million electron volts (MeV). (references) | |
Electron beams, or e-beams, are produced in a different way. The e-beam is a stream of high energy electrons, propelled out of an electron gun. This electron gun apparatus is a larger version of the device in the back of a TV tube that propels electrons into the TV screen at the front of the tube, making it light up. This electron beam generator can be simply switched on or off. No radioactivity is involved. (references) | ||
