Abstract

The Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Dubna is developing and creating new cyclotrons. In the initial stage of development, it is necessary to analyze several variants of their magnetic structures in a relatively short time. Examined herein is the Laboratory’s developed CyclSyntWin software application which allows preliminary analysis of several variants and determination of the main physical and geometrical parameters of the cyclotron magnetic structure and magnet itself. The data obtained thereby can subsequently be used in 3D software applications, which substantially accelerates the final synthesis of the cyclotron magnetic structure and magnet. The CyclSyntWin application can be used to synthesize and optimize the magnetic structures of straight and spiral sector cyclotrons, close to azimuthally symmetric. The ratio of their air gaps in the valley and in the region of the sectors shouldn’t exceed 25 and the average magnetic field shouldn’t be more than 2 T.
