Bremsstrahlung:" Electromagnetic radiation that occurs when charged particles with energies large compared to their rest energies are decelerated over a very short distance. Since electrons are much lighter than protons, electron bremsstrahlung is the most common. In bremsstrahlung, a continuous spectrum with a characteristic profile and energy cutoff (i.e., wavelength minimum) is produced. In addition, lines can appear super imposed, corresponding to the ejection of K and L shell electrons knocked out of atoms in collisions with the high-energy electrons." scienceworld.wolfram.com/physics/Bremsstrahlung.htmlwww.astro.utu.fi/~cflynn/astroII/l3.html
