In the 3-GeV rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC), the injection and extraction systems play important roles for the beam injection and extraction, respectively. Unfortunately, the 2011 great east Japan earthquake had a serious impact on the ongoing schedule due to the big damage of the whole accelerator facility and the infrastructure as well. The injection and extraction including the beam transport lines magnets suffered a noticeable displacement resulting with alignment errors. As realignment of the RCS magnets can not be done in this year, then based on the post earthquake measured alignment data, we have estimated the effect as well as possible solutions on the injected and extracted beam for as usual operation. Fortunately, the simulation results shows that there would not be any serious impact on both injected as well as extracted beam with present alignment errors and thus user operation can be resume as expected. The simulation result together with some experimental results will be presented.

Transverse beam halo is one of the most important beam parameters due to limit the performance of the high intensity beam accelerator. Therefore the transverse beam halo measurement is required to increase the beam power of the J-PARC 3-GeV RCS. Transverse halo monitors, which are horizontal and vertical scanning aluminum plates type, has been installed in the extraction beam line. But the residual secondary electrons hindered the beam halo diagnostic. Thus we develop the new beam halo monitor with vibrating wire monitor.

J-PARC Facilities were damaged by East Japan Earthquake in March 2011, but All Facirities resumed a beam operation from December 2012. In this paper, we report and compare the beam loss distribution and the residual doses before and after resumption of user operation in J-PARC RCS.

The J-PARC RCS (3-GeV rapid cycling synchrotron) has two functions as a proton driver to the MLF (Materials and life science facility) and an injector to the MR (50-GeV main ring synchrotron). One of important issues in the current RCS bam tuning is to suppress the beam halo formation, which is essential especially to reduce the beam loss at the MR. In this paper, we present beam study results on the formation mechanism and reduction of the beam halo in the RCS.

The injection energy upgrade for J-PARC RCS is planed in 2013. This includes the power supplies upgrade of injection pulsed magnet system, suppression for leakage field, quadrupole correction magnets, reduction of kicker impedance effect and improvements of beam diagnostic instrumentation. The paper reports the present status.
