Abstract
The general features of superconducting compact cyclotrons are reviewed including cryogenics, superconducting coils, magnet, the radiofrequency accelerating system, vacuum, injection and extraction. The Chalk River K = 520 superconducting cyclotron is used as a specific example. Some of the problems in matching such cyclotrons to electrostatic accelerators with high terminal potentials are considered and some solutions described. It is concluded that the combination provides an excellent heavy-ion accelerator.
