In this video I describe the process of producing Cold Cathode Mode X-Rays using vacuum rectifier tubes, as well as dosimetry measurements and making radiographs.

Very cool! I love the blue glow on the end of the tube. The safety precautions put in place are also very professional. Very well done!

@waltonchan3931 9 месяцев назад

Absolutely phenomenal, can’t believe I’ve never seen these videos before! Great walkthrough and great radiographs.

@ScienceWithJames Год назад

Wow, those pictures you got were breathtaking! The science behind those vacuum tubes is also really interesting. Have you thought about making an IEC fusor? Me and a friend thought about building one a while back but it never came to fruition, though it probably wouldn't be too difficult to build and there are a lot of resources on the internet.

@FullModernAlchemist Год назад

Thank you! I appreciate that. I have been toying with the idea of making a Farnsworth fusor, which i believe counts as an IEC. I think the biggest challenge there is I’ll need to find a turbomolecular pump or similar to get to the hard vacuum required.

@Cristi0986 Год назад

what vaccum tube did you use?

@FullModernAlchemist Год назад

@@Cristi0986 there’s a list of them about halfway through the video with the dose rates i was able to achieve with each one.

@Patrisumbro Год назад

I love how the Sup Info came first 😂😂😂. Excellent work, excited to see what other things you do with it.

@FullModernAlchemist Год назад

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it. Next things I am most likely going to try are X-ray Crystallography and mutating plant seeds with X-rays.

@the_runofff 5 месяцев назад

this video is pulling me towards an xray crystallography build. i want to redo the double helix experiments so badly

@FullModernAlchemist 5 месяцев назад

Well without promising too much I am actually looking into doing X-ray Crystallography as a follow up.

I will def build an XRD for my inorganics lab if you post your build vid

@cinescopefilms 2 месяца назад

I built one using a 6BC-1 regulator tube with only 15kv and later using a 3A3 rectifier at 40kv. got nice pictures.

@AnthonyFrancisJones 5 месяцев назад

Interesting! I have all the bits in my loft to build my x-ray machine but have never got around to it! Still not sure if I want to use a prebuilt power supply or a CW home made one like you did. When I was at Cambridge Uni there were still some tubes/diodes from the CWG in the lab! Thanks for the encouragement to get mine built finally!

@FullModernAlchemist 5 месяцев назад

Good luck! One thing I’ll say is the homebuilt power supply is likely to be the cheapest option unless you can find a good high voltage power supply from a surplus company or something.

@AnthonyFrancisJones 5 месяцев назад

@@FullModernAlchemist Yes they are a bit pricey! At least we don't need large currents!

Is it logic if using 2x2a and a wimshurst machine at surface it can achieve from 100usv/h to 300 usv/h? I was using radiacode 102, i connected the pins and anode to the spheres of the wimshurst machine.

Crt is the best cheap x ray source available right? It has high vaccumm High Voltege and acceleration Beam can be focus or widen? Comparable with Comercial tube if boosted by Voltege? Except for soft x rays?

@FullModernAlchemist 8 месяцев назад

Do you mean for a television or a traditional CRT like a Crookes tube? Because a television has shielding glass on the front to reduce or eliminate X-ray emission. A Crookes tube was one of the first tubes used to create X-rays. There’s very little difference between the theory behind a CRT and an X-ray. Mostly it’s what you do with the electrons and how strongly you accelerate them. As for which is best it really depends on the application. I’m sure there are use cases for any design you could think up.

@omsingharjit 8 месяцев назад

@@FullModernAlchemistyes crt tv, I know it's lead shielded but since it's not solid lead but leaded glass it should be transparent for hard x rays

@FullModernAlchemist 8 месяцев назад

@@omsingharjit I see what you’re saying now, yeah it would probably produce some measurable X-rays. I have no idea how much.

I am doing the same thing with 2x2a tubes but it is not working, I am adding a 100w 30kv power supply but the tubes do not glow clearly even with the room lights off, I am still connecting the power supply to the tubes, what could be the problem?

@FullModernAlchemist 8 месяцев назад

Do you own a Geiger counter? I’d check with that, at 30KV and 100W you may not get the kind of cathode glow like me. I was putting two to five times as much voltage and 360W theoretical output, which is why it was glowing a lot. In my early experiments I didn’t see any visible glow, and my setup sounds pretty close to what you’re running.

@HillmanSetyo 5 месяцев назад

@nilsachermann9300 5 месяцев назад

Can it be that when you said nu705a you showed an b1-0.1 tube I have my selv tried 2x2a and some b1-0.1 tubes and blasted them whit something like 120kv and had an huge overheating problem how have you handled the overheating ov the tubes ?

@FullModernAlchemist 5 месяцев назад

NU705A is the American name for the B1-0.1 it seems. I was running my tubes at 360 watts. They did generate a lot of heat. I simply don’t run them very long and I pointed a desk fan across the setup to aid in cooling. I typically ran them in pulses of one minute or less.
