Abstract
The circuit arrangement of the proposed coaxial ring cyclotron (CRC) is described, and its main advantages, such as simple injection technique, several injected beams summation option, high efficiency, are considered. The proposed proton accelerator is a perspective machine for the solution of the main problems of the present day nuclear power engineering as well as for the next-generation nuclear power plants, representing a combination of subcritical reactors and particle accelerators. The possibility of installation of CRCs into ring accelerators with an average diameter from 60 to
100m
, e.g., the Yerevan electron synchrotron, is considered.
