Transverse oscillation of particles in the vicinity of resonances for a cyclotron

Transverse oscillation is an important issue in beam dynamics of cyclotrons and can be described by the Mathieu equation. We review the standard form of the Mathieu equation, d^{2}u/dθ^{2}+(δ+ϵ·cos2θ)u=0, and propose a modification of the method of multiple scales (i.e., a perturbation method) so th...
