X-ray (Chess)In chess, an x-ray is an attack that involves the action of a piece being felt "through" a piece of the opposite color. The following example illustrates this motif: The diagram on the left is from Alekhine-Nestor, Trinidad 1939, with White to move: After 1.Rc8 Qxd7 (1...Rxc8 2.Qe7!) 2.Qf8+!, Black resigned in view of 2...Rxf8 3.Rxf8#. The moves are given in algebraic chess notation.
