1. Outline of X-ray  
  Discovery
W.C. Roentgen confirmed a phenomenon that fluorescent reaction is caused by unidentified light during a shield cathode-ray tube using examination in Nov. 8th, 1895. He named this unknown light X-ray and published the result of his research in Dec. 8th, 1895. This thesis gave him the first Novel prize for literature.

  Action of X-ray
1) Physical Reaction :
¿©±â, Ionization, Exothemic reaction, Fluorescent reaction

2) Chemical Reaction :
A fast electron, made by X-ray, can have chemical reaction in case that there is ionization or ¿©±â.

3) Physical/Chemical Reaction :
X-ray has photographic reaction as visible light does. Therefore, it makes the internal structure of a body and is used to measure by coloration reaction.

4) Biological Reaction :
X-ray can be the reason of aging hasten, genetic hindrance, and so on because it has not only an acute reaction, such as skin erythema, a ulcer, etc. But it also has ¸¸¹ß reaction, so that can cause aging hasten, generic obstacles, etc. It has been using for radiotherapy of malignant tumor.

Generation of Damping X-ray

The origin of damping x-ray is the energy conversion that is generated when rapid electronic ray abruptly decelerate at target in anode of X-ray tube. X-ray tube is a vacuum tube that has anode with target and cathode with filament, creator of electron. When filming, high voltage is offered between both poles. Peculiarly, target is consisted of tungsten and has high atomic number, 74, and it can resist high temperature due to its high melting point, 3370¡É.
