Tungsten is used in the cathode ray tube (CRT) because it has a high melting point and good thermionic emission properties, which means it can easily release electrons. The thorium oxide or barium oxide coating on the tungsten helps to improve electron emission efficiency by reducing work function and enhancing electron current. This combination allows for better electron beam production in the CRT.
Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy
Because emission spectrum are the result of the electron configuration of the element and no two elements have exactly the same electron configuration.

Radioactive decay; beta decay is a type of radioactive decay in which a beta particle (an electron or a positron) is emitted

thermionic emission occurs when the filaments are heated to a certain degree, causing the electrons to boil off and form a space charge or electron cloud.
Thermionic emission occurs when electron leaves the surface of metals while evaporation occur in liquid when strong electron gain energy and escape the liquid surface in gaseous form

Basically the thermionic rays are fast moving electrons. They originate in the region having an excess of electrons. So originate from the cathode.

It works on the following principles : (i)thermionic emission (ii)deflection of the electron beam by the electric and magnetic field (iii)fluorescence produced by the electron beam on a fluorescent screen
