The cascade cyclotron system provides high quality beams for precise experiments in nuclear physics using the high resolution spectrograph Grand-RAIDEN. Recently secondarily produced DC muons has become available. Radio-isotope production is regularly carried out for fundamental research in nuclear chemistry and medicine. The upgrade program of the cyclotron facility was carried out to reduce deterioration of cyclotron equipment and to construct new beam lines for experiments using muons and high quality beams. A bending magnet using a high-temperature superconducting wire was developed for switching between two beam lines. Design of a new type of high-temperature superconducting compact AVF cyclotron is underway to promote targeted alpha-particle therapy. PB - JACoW CP - Geneva, Switzerland ER -
