A remover of electrostatic charges comprises a head part, a soft X-ray
protecting part, and a power controlling part. The head part neutralizes
and weakens electrostatic charges of bodies that are objects of removal
of electrostatic charges by generating soft X-ray having wavelengths in
the range of 1.2 .ANG..about.1.5 .ANG. with high energy from a soft X-ray
tube, and ionizes gas molecules directly and also removes electrostatic
charges in atmosphere of inert gases (N.sub.2, Ar). The soft X-ray
protecting part wraps the head part and prevents that soft X-ray is
leaked from said head part. The power controlling part is connected to
the head part and the soft X-ray protecting part electrically and
provides target voltage to control the ion generation of filament voltage
of a soft X-ray tube and soft X-ray tube with the soft X-ray tube.
