A bucky grid is a radiologic instrument made up of an alternating lead and plastic grid placed between the object being imaged and the xray photon detector. It allows a radiologist to use higher frequency radiation while minimizing the resultant scatter of xrays that normally accompanies using higher frequency xrays. The use of this grid enables a radiologist to to image denser objects (e.g. obese individuals, spine imagining from a chest image) then would normally be possible with traditional radiography. It is very similar to the concept employed by polarized sun glasses. Note: for a further discussion of this topic see Chap 4 of Squire's Fundamentals of Radiology.

Why is the Potter-Bucky now just called the bucky why was the name potter removed from the potter bucky?
La Rejilla estacionaria fue Inventada en 1913 por Gustavo Bucky y luego Hollis Potter le adicionó el motor para imprimir movimiento durante la exposición radiográfica, para borrar sus lineas de la imágen. Desde entonces se le llama Diafragma o Rejilla Potter Bucky, sumamente útil para controlar la radiación secundaria. Sorry I've no had time to write in english...

What nicknames does Bucky Lasek go by?
Bucky Lasek goes by Bucky.
What is the function of grid?
it accelerate the motion of electron emitted by the filament if given a positive charge, similarly if negative voltage to grid the current flow through the grid is reduced. the more positive grid shows less current.
What is function of grid in the battery?
The more "plates" in the grid, the more surface area exposed to the electrolyte, hence the more power produced.
