Hi Pat -

I, too, have a memory of such a picture. This isn't quite the one I was thinking of, but it should hopefully serve the purpose:

Hi all,

I have a vague memory of having a picture in someone's presentation once, 
showing a smoking hot X-ray beam emerging from the beam pipe in a hutch at a 
synchrotron. I think the picture might have been a double exposure, with a long 
exposure that captured air ionization superimposed on a normal photo (or some 
similar contrivance).

In any case, can anyone point to or provide such a picture? I'm preparing a 
seminar, and I want to lend artistic verisimilitude to an otherwise bald and 
unconvincing narrative...

Thanks in advance,

Pat
