The a - rays differ from the cathode - rays in that they cannot be deflected by a magnet , and in that they possess a greater penetrating power . Yet this is no bard and fast distinction ; for as there are cathodic rays which can be ...

Every point on a body exposed to cathode - rays becomes a point of emanation for x - rays which go in all directions , both in the tube and in the body exposed , to a considerable depth , so that they can pass through it and emerge .

The emission of the x - rays is not confined to the surface of the object struck , but takes place within a stratum of perceptible thickness ; and this follows as a consequence from the fact that it does not follow Lambert's law of ...
