The dependences of the inclination angle, associated with the maximal value of the intensity of collimated X-rays (upper plot), and of the maximal value of the intensity of collimated X-rays (lower plot) on the value of the apex angle of the conical anode at an electron energy equal to 500 keV and electron beam radii equal to 0.5 mm (1), 2.0 mm (2), and 5.0 mm (3).
