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
