	Non-inductive ceramic resistors, based on alumina and carbon, are used for impedance matching in the circuit of the J-PARC main ring injection kicker system. The kickers were installed in December 2011, and have been in operation successfully since then. However, discharges at the edge of the ceramic bulk were observed after several weeks’ operation, which increase resistance from O(100) to O(1M). Investigation indicates that poor contact with the rough surface of the ceramic bulk due to irregular shaped spots causes micro-gaps, which trigger the discharge. In order to improve the contact, one type of brazing technology has been experimentally applied to one resistor. Another resistor had an annealed thin copper plate inserted, and both resistors were tested and compared. In this paper, we will describe details of the development of the resistors and give future prospects.

	Injection system of J-PARC main ring employs four lumped kickers to deflect the incoming beam. The residual field caused by tail and reflection of excitation current increases the closed beam orbit leading to particle loss in high power operation. A correction method using a fast kicker system to compensate the remaining angle is being developed. Doe to the narrow bunch spacing, transmission line kicker is selected to satisfy requirements of fast rise and fall time. The kicker magnet uses ceramic capacitors instead of parallel metal plates to make the magnet compact and reduce the stray inductance. Capacitors are installed in vacuum chamber. A very thin core is used to reduce distributed inductance. A bandwidth is calculated as 160 MHz. A Marx generator using FET switches has been studied, which is able to produce fast rise and fall time as 50 ns. Any pulse shape is generated by choosing switches to fire. A prototype magnet and a power supply have been fabricated for parameters test. In this paper, we will report the details of the system design, analyze the measurement results and give future prospects.
