An object is to provide an electron gun that makes it possible to verify whether or not an electron beam emitted form a photocathode is misaligned from a designed emission center axis. The object can be achieved by an electron gun including: a light source; a photocathode; and an anode. The electron gun includes an intermediate electrode arranged between the photocathode and the anode, an electron beam shielding member configured to block a part of an electron beam, a measurement unit configured to measure an intensity of an electron beam blocked by the electron beam shielding member, and an electron beam emission direction deflector arranged between the anode and the electron beam shielding member and configured to change a position where an electron beam that passed through the anode reaches the electron beam shielding member. The intermediate electrode has an electron beam passage hole and a drift space.

The present invention relates to a lighting apparatus for a vehicle, including: a bulb which generates light; a socket in which the bulb is mounted; a reflector which has a socket coupling unit to which the socket is coupled, allows the bulb to be inserted into the reflector, and reflects forward light generated by the bulb; and an electromagnetic shield which is disposed between the socket and the socket coupling unit, and has a bulb through hole which the bulb penetrates, in which first ground contact protrusions, which protrude toward a center of the bulb through hole and come into ground contact with the socket and the socket coupling unit, are formed on a portion of the electromagnetic shield where the bulb through hole is formed.

An ionization gauge to measure pressure, while controlling the location of deposits resulting from sputtering when operating at high pressure, includes at least one electron source that emits electrons, and an anode that defines an ionization volume. The ionization gauge also includes a collector electrode that collects ions formed by collisions between the electrons and gas molecules and atoms in the ionization volume, to provide a gas pressure output. The electron source can be positioned at an end of the ionization volume, such that the exposure of the electron source to atom flux sputtered off the collector electrode and envelope surface is minimized. Alternatively, the ionization gauge can include a first shade outside of the ionization volume, the first shade being located between the electron source and the collector electrode, and, optionally, a second shade between the envelope and the electron source, such that atoms sputtered off the envelope are inhibited from depositing on the electron source.
