We call it sticky tape here in Australia. Duct tape is the heavy black tape that's very versatile.

It sounds better with duct tape. In any case, since this seems to be related to the adhesive, it's more than probable that most forms of tape will also generate x-rays.

Oh, it works now...

Interesting.... that's a surprising large amount of energy.. or rather, a large amount of energy in a few particles.

EDIT: I just noticed it's also in today's paper...

"Hey! I can make x rays when I unroll tape in a vacuum!"

"Why are you unrolling tape in a vacuum?"

Really though, that's pretty cool.
