  The 1.2 GeV electron synchrotron has been operated for nuclear physics experiment since 1997 in Electron Light Science Centre, Tohoku University, in which the high energy gamma-rays via bremsstrahlung has been supplied for hadron physics. After the Great East Japan Earthquake in March 2011, recovery and reconstruction work of the accelerator complex is in progress vigorously. While the compact 90 MeV linac is newly constructed as the dedicated injector for the synchrotron, old power supplies of synchrotron magnets and also pulsed magnets for beam injection are going to be replaced in the synchrotron. Furthermore replacements of some quadrupole magnets to the combined function magnets with sextupole component are also on going. Modifying the ring optics so as to introduce the horizontal dispersion on the combined magnet position, this replacement work will make it possible to correct the chromaticity. At the present, power supplies and combined magnets have been manufactured and those installations will be completed soon. We will present the current status of upgrade project of the booster synchrotron.

  The Great East Japan Earthquake (March 11, 2011) has inflicted enormous damage on the accelerator facility of Research Center for Electron Photon Science, Tohoku University. A 300 MeV linac operated for 46 years as an accelerator for radioisotope production and also as an injector of the 1.2 GeV booster synchrotron for nuclear physics experiments. The accelerator will be rebuilt with all the recyclable components. New small linac is constructed as the injector for the booster synchrotron. The injector consists of thermionic rf-gun, two 3m-long accelerating structures, and transport line to the synchrotron. The maximum energy of injector is 90 MeV with beam loading. The detail of the injector linac is introduced in this conference.
