Abstract
It is an object of the present invention to achieve a magnetic field with high uniformity and low skew angle in a dipole ring magnetic field generating apparatus. There is provided a permanent magnet type magnetic field generating apparatus comprising: a plurality of permanent magnet pieces disposed in a ring shape so that a substantially unidirectional magnetic field is generated in a space within the ring, the permanent magnet pieces having the magnetization direction undergoing one rotation over a half-circumference of the ring, the permanent magnet pieces having substantially the same magnetic strength, and the permanent magnet pieces being disposed so as to form indentations and protrusions toward a center axis of the ring, or having a shape having indentations and protrusions facing the center axis.
