  The CSNS DTLs are divided into 4 cavities. The DTL-1 was transferred and installed in the CSNS Linac tunnel in August of 2015. The RF high power conditioning of DTL-1 started in December 2015 and ended in February 2016. At the end, we finished DTL-1 high power conditioning mission with peak power 1.5MW (1.1 times design value), 1.625% duty factor (650us, 25Hz). And the first beam has been successfully accelerated to the design value 21.6MeV with nearly 100% transmission efficiency. In this paper, the details of conditioning process were presented and one severe RF discharge breakdown was described specifically, which occurred during high power conditioning.

  The RF tuning of the first DTL tank for the China spalla-tion neutron source was finished leading to a stabilized-uniform accelerating field. After the installation of the DTL-1 in the linac tunnel, the high power conditioning was carried out deliberately. Consequently a peak RF power of 1.6MW with 25Hz repetition rate and 650'sec pulse width was put into the tank stably. A 3MeV H ion was injected into the DTL-1 and was successfully accel-erated to 21.6MeV with almost 100% transmission. Dur-ing the operation, The DTL-1 tank worked stable in the design power level. The conditioning details will be pre-sented in this paper.

  The CSNS DTL accelerates negative hydrogen ions from 3MeV to 80MeV with resonant frequency of 324MHz and peak current of 15mA. The CSNS includes four DTL cavities with diameter of 56.6cm and each length of 9 meters. RF properties research and measurement have been done to make sure the design and manufacture validate for beam operation. A new automatic system has been developed for measuring field distribution. The secondary derivation method is used to calculate the amount of the tuners to tune axial field flatness. The tilt of TS curve is used to judge the gap between the post couplers and drift tubes to achieve stability. At last the tanks have good flatness and strong stabilization, the field deviation is 2% with the standard deviation of 0.96%, and the maximum TS parameter is 65%/MHz. After the low power RF tuning experiment, the four tans have been installed in the tunnel, and have gotten good results of high power test and beam acceleration experiment.

  The China Spallation Neutron Source(CSNS) accelera-tor systems is designed to deliver a 1.6GeV, 100kW pro-ton beam to a solid metal target for neutron scattering research. It consists of a 50keV H Ion Source, a 3MeV Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ), an 80MeV Drift Tube Linac (DTL), and a 1.6GeV Rapid-cycling Synchro-tron (RCS). The beam commissioning has been started since April 2015. The Front End and three of the four DTL tanks have been commissioned, while the last tank and the RCS will be commissioned at the autumn this year. At the end of the DTL3, beam has been accelerated to 61MeV with nearly 100% transmission, other parame-ters such as peak current, transverse emittance and beam orbit have reached the design goal. Results and status of the beam commissioning program will be presented.

  The linac to ring beam transport line (LRBT) connects the 80 MeV linac and the 1.6 GeV rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) of the China spallation neutron source (CSNS). The linac and LRBT commissioning have been in progress in the past months and the H beam has been accelerated to the kinetic energy of 60MeV this April. The H beam in LRBT which was measured and commissioned transported through the long beam line with low loss. The beam commissioning process and results of LRBT are presented and discussed.

  China Spallation Neutron Source (CSNS) is a high intensity accelerator based facility. Its accelerator consists of an H injector and a proton Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS). The injector includes the front end and linac. The RFQ accelerates the beam to 3MeV, and then the Drift Tube Linac (DTL) accelerates it to 80MeV. A Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT) matches RFQ and DTL, and the DTL consists of four tanks (DTL1, 2, 3, 4). A Linac to Ring Beam Transport (LRBT) matches DTL and RCS, also decreases beam energy spread. Commissioning of the first three DTL tank and LRBT straight section have been almost accomplished in this run. This paper takes a beam dynamics simulation on beam transport in MEBT and DTL at different DTL accelerate models. Meanwhile, beam's central orbit deviation at DTL and LRBT straight section due to DTL mechanical cavity's alignment errors is studied with IMPACT-Z code.
