Abstract This article describes experiments on the acceleration of charged particles in an azimuthally varying magnetic field on the 1 1/2f-meter cyclotron of the Atomic Energy Institute, of the Academy of Sciences, USSR [1]. The production of a magnetic field of the sector type with a coarse variation of ∼±15% at a potential of ∼15 kv between the dees made it possible to accelerate deuterons to an energy of 19 Mev. Investigation of the motion of the ions at the final orbits showed that it was possible to eject a large part of the ion beam with an energy considerably exceeding 20–22 Mev by means of an electrostatic deflecting system. Curves characterizing the acceleration process in an azimuthally varying magnetic field were plotted. Valuable data was obtained on the correction to the form of the magnetic field by current coils distributed inside the accelerating chamber.
