Emittance balancing technique for the resonant slow extraction from a synchrotron

A new method is proposed to produce identical beam emittances in the transverse phase planes from a severely asymmetric beam extracted from a slow-cycling synchrotron. This is important to obtain a good beam distribution at the irradiation spot when the spot scanning method is used for the treatment...
