Description

The design of a superconducting cyclotron magnet, especially intended for high-energy applications such as a 350MeV/u hadron therapy cyclotron for carbon ions ( ^12 C^(6+) ), demands stringent control over the magnetic field profile. The magnet must strictly adhere to an isochronous field distribution to maintain a constant ion revolution frequency despite relativistic mass increases during acceleration. This document presents a robust, fully automated optimization framework that combines analytical modeling, iterative 2D Poisson-based magnetic field simulations, correction techniques, field harmonics analysis, tune optimization through spiral angle adjustment, and concludes with the automated generation of an optimized 3D magnet structure, ready for fine-tuning via 3D finite-element simulations (TOSCA).
