Abstract

In autumn 2017, the project “Quantum Innovation for Safe and Smart Society (QiSS)” was started in Program on Open Innovation Platform with Enterprises, Research Institute and Academia (OPERA) by Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST). One of the key issues of this project is the advancement of compact cyclotron and beam irradiation device for stable supply of short-lived radioisotope (RI). We proposed the air-core cyclotron using high-temperature superconducting (HTS) technology, named Skeleton Cyclotron, as high intensity compact cyclotron. Currently, we are carrying out a feasibility study on a variable-energy multi-particle Skeleton Cyclotron for RI production. In this paper, key issues in HTS magnet technologies for Skeleton Cyclotron and the preliminary conceptual design of variable-energy multi-particle Skeleton Cyclotron are reported.
