Abstract
CONSIDERABLE interest has recently been shown in the heavy-particle, and in particular proton, accelerators that are capable of delivering, with a narrow spectrum, a wide range of output energies. Interest has been focused on two ranges of proton energies: 3–15 or 20 MeV. and 3–50 MeV., with an easing of the requirements concerning permissible width of spectrum at the higher energies.
