Abstract

The invention relates to a device for recognizing the impact site (29, 37) of a charge carrier beam on a target. This device has two position-sensitive detectors (22, 23) above the target which have a given distance from each other and from the target and on which via imaging systems (24, 25) the impact site (29, 37) of the charge carrier beam is imaged by means of X-rays. The output signals of these detectors (22, 23) are placed on a special evaluation device which determines all three spatial coordinates of the impact site (29, 37) of the charge carrier beam.
