Abstract

The article discusses the Proton Therapy and Research Cyclotron Facilities at the IFJ PAN Krakow in Poland. The facilities were initially used for nuclear physics experiments and neutron cancer therapy, but have since expanded to include proton therapy for eye melanoma patients. The center operates an IBA C230 cyclotron for proton therapy, and also conducts nuclear physics experiments during weekends. The facilities offer a range of research opportunities in the fields of medical physics, radiotherapy, and nuclear physics. [Extracted from the article]
