Novel compact superconducting cyclotron for medical applications

A new design is presented for a superconducting-coil-based compact cyclotron, which has many practical benefits over conventional superconducting cyclotrons. Unlike in conventional superconducting cyclotrons, an iron yoke and poles have been avoided in this design and the azimuthally varying field i...
