Abstract (en)
[origin: US2009091409A1] A curved beam-guiding magnet is provided. The beam-guiding magnet without ferromagnetic material serves to deflect a beam of electrically charged particles along a curved particle path and incorporates a coil system made of at least six curved superconducting single coils arranged in pairs in mirror-inverted fashion relative to a beam-guiding plane. The coil system comprises two saddle-shaped main coils and two flat, banana-shaped curved secondary coils of the race-track type, each of which encloses a banana-shaped curved auxiliary coil of the race-track type. The beam-guiding magnet is particularly suitable for an irradiation unit of the gantry type.
