AGOR a supraconducting cyclotron for light and heavy ions

The main design characteristics of the AGOR K600 superconducting cyclotron are presented with special emphasis on the original aspects of the proposed accelerator: the acceleration of both light (protons up to 200 MeV) and heavy ions, the design of the axial injection and central region geometry, the magnet, the RF structures, the extraction system, and the solutions adopted for the cryostat and the superconducting coils. Examples of calculations on the beam dynamics and beam properties will be given. The actual project status is reviewed
