Method and apparatus for reduction of skin effect losses in electrical conductors

A novel method of reducing the undesired skin effect in electrical conductors is presented. Specific applications including efficient power transmission and high frequency magnetic field generation are discussed, and the advantages over prior art are mentioned. The present invention modifies the inductance of a given conductor with depth into said conductor, allowing the current flowing in the surface of the conductor due to skin effect to diffuse through the remaining conductor area. Inductance is modified in a distributed, continuous fashion via external magnetic structures, ensuring both manufacturability and usability of the resultant conductor. When skin effect inside a conductor is reduced, power loss of transmitted electrical signals is reduced accordingly. Therefore, the present invention represents a significant improvement over prior art.

In a radiation source and a method for the generation of X-radiation, a liquid is arranged in a liquid line, the liquid being completely surrounded by the liquid line in the direction of an evacuated chamber. A portion of the liquid line is permeable to an electron beam such that the electron beam extending through the chamber is able to enter via the liquid line so as to interact with the liquid in an interaction zone for the generation of X-radiation. The radiation source ensures a good dissipation of heat from the interaction zone and prevents liquid from entering the chamber.
