Abstract The present article describes the experiments performed on a mock-up of the electromagnet of the 1.5-meter cyclotron at the I. V. Kurchatov Order of Lenin Institute of Atomic Energy, Academy of Sciences, USSR [1]. We investigated the optimum magnet geometry which would make it possible to maintain a constant shape of the magnetic field, the compensation of the magnetic field by means of circular windings which are placed in the operating gap between the caps, and also the action of sectorial windings, which serve for producing the first harmonic and for changing the magnetic field's variation depth. Experiments on the compensation of the magnetic field by means of circular windings, which were placed in the clearance for shimming, were organized. The compensation of a magnetic field with azimuthal variation was performed. The results of this investigation were used for selecting the compensating elements for a 1.5-meter cyclotron with azimuthal variation of the magnetic field's strength and controllable energy [2, 3].
