A method for sweeping a charged particle beam out of an isochronous cyclotron (1) comprising a solenoid forming a magnetic circuit that includes at least a number of sectors (3, 3') known as 'ridges' where the air-gap is reduced, and separated by sector-shaped spaces (4) known as 'valleys' where the air-gap is larger. According to the sweeping method, the particle beam is swept without using a sweeping device as the magnetic field has a special arrangement produced by designing the solenoid air-gap at the ridges (3, 3') of the isochronous cyclotron in such a way that the aspect ratio between the solenoid air-gap at the ridges in the region of the maximum radius, and the radius gain per turn of the particles accelerated by the cyclotron at said radius is less than 20.
