Invited Paper-Research with AVF Cyclotrons in Europe

Although AVF cyclotrons have been in operation only for a relatively short period an impressive number of experiments have been performed and much work is also currently being done. The available time for this talk is too short, of course, to give an exhaustive survey of what has been achieved in Europe during the last year and I must select some typical experiments for presentation, apologizing to those authors, whose work I cannot mention.
