Bremsstrahlung is scattered radiation that occurs when metal objects are subjected to gamma radiation.
From my old Nuclear Medicine days...:)
I saw the word and it piqued my interest...it can cause problems with imaging.
Basically, ‘heatsinking’...................
Basically, scattered radiation. Been a long time since I saw the word in a public forum!
Bremsstrahlung is one of those particular German words that describes the feeling you get when you begin talking to a beautiful woman, but then your mother suddenly appears and tells you to come home immediately and clean your room and the woman laughs at you and goes off with the captain of the football team from Romania.
Verdammt Mutter du hast mich sehr bremsstrahlung gemacht
“Sitting on a park bench...”
It’s translated “braking radiation”. (I like to say it - “bremsstrahlung”!!)
The intensity, I, of the Bremsstrahlung X-rays at any energy E in the spectrum is given by Kramers’ Law
I ≈ ip.Z(Eo-E)/E
where ip is the electron probe current and Z is the mean atomic number.
The intensity is zero where E = Eo (the Duane-Hunt limit) but approaches infinity (∞) as E approaches zero.
Note that according to Kramers’ Law, the intensity of the Bremsstrahlung X-rays is proportional to Z, the mean atomic number of the specimen. This means that heavier materials like Pb or Au will produce more Bremsstrahlung X-rays than samples made from lighter elements such as C or Al.

First time I have heard of CIF, Cavitatation Induced Fusion.
Should I shield my pool pump?
“Possible radiation from thin film metal surface with anomalous excess heat”
Possible herd immunity from leaky human covid injections with anomalous excess variants
or something possibly
It’s like black lung or lumber lung. Only different
I wonder if there is a yet unidentified action. I am not a chemist or even high school physics teacher, so I have no background to comment, but I will ask the following.
What if the materials form some type of energy antenna? Perhaps turn magnetic fields into heat? Kind of like a thermocouple but works on a different (non nuclear) law of physics? Would there be a way to structure that as a lab experiment?
Just speculation on my part.
Literally, “braking radiation”.
It occurs when an electron loses translational energy (”speed”) and dumps the energy in the form of a photon (light). I can no longer remember if it requires strict straight-line motion, or if the change of direction is also allowed.
