scanning using deflection coils driven with sawtooth current waveforms to fill screen with closely spaced lines and modulating beam current to produce variations of brightness. color is a bit more complex as it uses three beams to vary brightness of three colors of phosphor: red, green, and blue along with a thin steel shadow mask to ensure that only the right beam hits the right color phosphor dots.
It's possible the screen is damaged, or a tube has gone bad (is this an older tube TV/ not an LCD/Plasma/LED?).
Those were picture-tube TVs. The picture tube was almost as long as the TV screen was wide.
No. Or rather, it's a lot more complicated than that. Magnets are important in a cathode ray tube style television, but they don't "make the picture". The picture shows up as a result of an electron beam hitting the phosphor-covered inside of the tube. The magnets are used to steer the electron beam. In an LCD or LED type television, there are no magnets and an entirely different process is used.
The picture tube is the main component of a television set.The picture tube is the main component of a television set.
It shouldn't. If there is no actual power to the CRT (no picture visible) then there really can't be any degradation of the tube.
A replacement tube (if it is available) is likely going to cost almost as much as the whole television. If you need a new tube, it's time to ditch the tube TV and get a flat screen.
Monochrome generally indicates a black and white picture.
Why not!Smashing the face of the picture tube will cause an implosion.
If the deflection yoke is rotated it can cause a slanted TV picture. The deflection yoke is located on the tube neck inside the TV.
Dim picture, slow to get bright and the white part of the picture turns kind of negative looking.

panasonic? 15 years?,,,,,,,,,,,,, I am sure the tube is going out.
