摘要： Methods and systems for x-ray inspection are provided. The system can include a source of radiant energy configured so that the radiant energy traverses a scanning volume. The system can further include a filter between the source and the scanning volume, a conveying apparatus configured to impart relative motion between an exposure-limited subject and the scanning volume, a conveyance monitor configured to generate conveyance data reflecting a conveyance state of the exposure-limited subject, a radiant energy sensing apparatus configured to sense radiant energy from the source and to generate source radiant energy data, and a dose controller configured to acquire conveyance data, source radiant energy data, and a signal related to subject dose data, and to generate a measure that a portion of the exposure-limited subject has acquired a dose of radiant energy above a dose threshold.

摘要： Prior art systems for screening carry-on baggage and other items carried by individuals comprise: a screening device (1), especially an X-ray screening device, a conveyor (2) for conveying the items to be screened through the screening device (1), a support surface (3) arranged upstream of the conveyor (2), a removal position (5, 5.1) for the items, arranged downstream of the conveyor (2), transport trays (8) which can be placed on the conveyor (2) and in which small objects and items of clothing can be placed and conveyed through the screening device (1) for screening, and a return conveyor (9) for the empty transport trays (8). According to the invention, the return conveyor (9) leads to a tray lift (10) the exit of which leads to a tray transfer path (11) extending in parallel to the support surface (3), said transfer path tapering towards the support surface (3).

摘要： In a method for detecting hidden objects by means of electromagnetic millimeter waves, in which a test object is irradiated with millimeter waves and the millimeter waves that are reflected from the test object are evaluated, the millimeter waves are focused on different depth layers (3, 4) of the test object during the irradiation thereof.

摘要： Method for improving the ability to detect materials in an X-ray test system, having the following method steps - at least two absorption X-ray images of an object to be investigated are recorded at different energies - the object is mathematically modelled by means of a number of layers, assuming a specific material for each layer, wherein an absorption value describes the absorptivity of a layer, the number of layers is less than or equal to the number of X-ray images and a material to be detected during the test is assumed for at least one layer - the absorption value for each layer is broken down into a travel-dependent factor and an energy-dependent factor - the travel-dependent factors for all layers are calculated from the absorption X-ray images by means of the absorption equation - at least one synthetic image is calculated from the sum of the absorption values for all layers, which absorption values have been multiplied by weighting factors - the synthetic image is evaluated.

摘要： Disclosed is a betatron (1), particularly in an x-ray inspection station, comprising an accelerator block that is provided with a rotationally symmetrical inner yoke composed of two spaced-apart pieces (2a, 2b), at least one main field coil (6a, 6b), and a toroidal betatron tube (5) which is disposed between the pieces (2a, 2b) of the inner yoke. The betatron (1) further comprises an outer yoke (4) which embraces the accelerator block, connects the two pieces (2a, 2b) of the inner yoke, and has at least one lateral opening, as well as a lead shield that accommodates the accelerator block and the outer yoke. The outer yoke is composed of at least two parts which are movable relative to one another between an open and a closed position. The accelerator block can be laterally removed from the opening of the outer yoke that is in the open position.

摘要： The invention relates to betatron (1), especially in X-ray testing apparatus, comprising a rotationally symmetrical inner yoke consisting of two interspaced parts (2a, 2b), an outer yoke (4) connecting the two inner yoke parts (2a, 2b), at least one main field coil (6a, 6b), a toroidal betatron tube (5) arranged between the opposing front sides of the inner yoke parts (2a, 2b), and at least one contraction and expansion coil (CE coil; 7a, 7b). An individual CE coil (7a, 7b) is respectively arranged between the front side of the inner yoke part (2a, 2b) and the betatron tube (5), and the radius of the CE coil (7a, 7b) is essentially the same as the nominal orbital radius of the electrons in the betatron tube (5).
