    Abstract: An electron gun having: a cathode for emitting electrons; a first Wehnelt electrode equipped with a first aperture through which electrons are allowed to pass; and a second Wehnelt electrode that is equipped with a second aperture disposed at a predetermined position with respect to the cathode and the first aperture, and that is furnished at a position closer to the cathode than the first Wehnelt electrode, wherein: the cathode and the second Wehnelt electrode are included within a single assembly constituting a unitary body; and the assembly is detachably attached to the first Wehnelt electrode. Replacement of the cathode can be performed by detaching the cathode unit from the first Wehnelt electrode, and then ejecting the cathode unit out from the Wehnelt cover. The emitter of the cathode can thereby be reliably positioned with respect to the second aperture.

    Abstract: An X-ray image generation device includes a moving mechanism that moves an object relative to a grating part in a direction crossing X-rays emitted toward the grating part. The grating part includes N (2≤N) regions along the direction of movement by the moving mechanism. A cyclic direction of a grating structure in each of the plurality of gratings belonging to an ith (1≤i≤N−1) region out of the N regions and a cyclic direction of a grating structure in each of the plurality of gratings belonging to an (i+1)th region out of the N regions are different directions. The plurality of gratings are configured so that moiré interference fringes generated in the N regions have a cyclic intensity fluctuation measurable by the detector and of at least one cycle or more in the direction of movement by the moving mechanism.

    Abstract: First ROI pixel values of a first region of interest 101 of a radiographic intensity distribution image 10, and second ROI pixel values of a second region of interest 102 of the radiographic intensity distribution image 10, are acquired. One of the first and second regions of interest is set to be at a position, or vicinity thereof, where a phase difference in the intensity modulation period within the radiographic intensity distribution image, with respect to the other region of interest, becomes π/2. Next, an elliptical locus obtained by plotting the first and second ROI pixel values for each radiographic intensity distribution image is determined. k angle region images are then acquired using the radiographic intensity distribution images corresponding to at least k angle regions that have been obtained by dividing the elliptical locus for each given angle. A radiographic image is then generated using the k angle region images. k is an integer of three or more.
