The injection energy of the J-PARC RCS will be upgraded from 181 MeV to 400 MeV in the 2013 summer-autumn period. With this upgraded injection energy, we are to aim for 1 MW design output beam power. In this paper, we discuss beam dynamics issues for the 1 MW beam operation and their possible solutions.

We have established two independent methods for monitoring the waste beam of only about 0.4% in the 3 GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron of the Japan Proton Accelerator. Although using conventional monitor systems, the measurement technique made it possible for clearly measuring such a waste beam even with significantly low error. One of the method uses a current transformer to measure the waste beam as a whole, while the other one uses a multi-wire profile monitor for clearly measuring beam profiles of both un-stripped and partially stripped components of the waste beam. While the raw signal measured by a CT (current transformer) contains a large noise, an FFT (Fast Fourier Transformation) analysis made it possible to clearly identify the beam signal corresponding to the frequency of the intermediate pulse. The waste beam was measured to be (0.38±0.03)%. Being non destructive, the 1st method is efficiently operating for online monitoring of the waste beam during the RCS user operation so as to directly know the the stripper foil condition and would have great importance for higher power operation.

J-PARC 3-GeV RCS has started the beam commissioning since Oct. 2007. In the beam commissioning, the beam tuning for basic parameters and high-intensity operation has been continuously performed. This presentation will describe the results of the beam-loss reduction and minimization for high-intensity operation.
