US Patent 12106925 Cyclotron having continuously variable energy output

An apparatus may include a cyclotron to receive an ion beam as an incident ion beam at an initial energy, and output the ion beam as an accelerated ion beam at an accelerated ion energy. The apparatus may further include an RF source to output an RF power signal to the cyclotron chamber, the RF power source comprising a variable power amplifier, and a movable stripper, translatable to intercept the ion beam within the cyclotron at a continuum of different positions.
