Problems solved by technology

However, in a case when a magnetic field strength increases, due to an affect of a magnetic saturation of an iron core which is used in a magnetic pole of the electromagnet, a leakage magnetic field from the magnetic pole increases.
As a result, in a case where there is a chance of a use of the beam with a wide energy range, since the maximum magnetic field strength of the electromagnet is limited by the above stated reasons, it is necessary to employ a bending electromagnet having a large radius of curvature.
However, since it is necessary to provide the projection to the magnetic pole, a magnetic pole structure becomes a complicated one.
In company with this, also a manufacturing cost becomes high.
Further, in the above stated second prior art, similarly to the first prior art, since it is necessary to provide the projection to the pole piece, the pole piece structure becomes a complicated one.
In company with those requirements, also a manufacturing cost becomes high.

Abstract

An electromagnet comprises a pair of magnetic pole 1a and 1b, a return yoke 3, exciting coils 4 and 5, etc. In an interior portion of a magnetic pole, plural spacers 2a-2g are provided putting side by side in a horizontal direction. Each of the spaces 2a-2g is an air layer and a longitudinal cross-section is a substantially rectangular shape and the space has a lengthily extending slit shape in a vertical direction against a paper face in FIG. 1. The plural spaces are mainly arranged toward a right side from a beam orbit center O and an interval formed between adjacent spaces is narrower toward the right side. The electromagnet having a simple magnetic pole structure and a wide effective magnetic field area in a case where a maximum magnetic field strength is increased can be secured.

Description

[0001] 1. Technical Field[0002] The present invention relates to an electromagnet for bending an orbit of a charged particle beam and a magnetic field generating apparatus for generating a magnetic field in an air gap and, in particularly to an electromagnet suitable for use in a physical experimentation use accelerator, an industrial use accelerator and a medical treatment use accelerator or a magnetic field generating apparatus for use in a medical treatment use diagnosing instrument such as MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imager).[0003] 2. Prior Arts[0004] In generally, an electromagnet used in an accelerator is designed to have a desirable magnetic field distribution in a predetermined area which is determined by a size of a charged particle beam (hereinafter, it is called as a beam). However, in a case when a magnetic field strength increases, due to an affect of a magnetic saturation of an iron core which is used in a magnetic pole of the electromagnet, a leakage magnetic field from t...
