Abstract :
A number of groups are engaged in improvement of synchrocyclotrons in order to increase beam current and improve extraction efficiency and beam precision. This paper reviews the major problems involved in such improvements and the solutions contemplated by the several groups. Goals are beams of 10??a or more with extraction efficiency of at least 50% and a tenfold gain in spatial and energy definition of the beams.
