	We have made a numerous progress for beam simulation in the 3-GeV RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron) of J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) by using 3-D particle tracking code, ORBIT. Namely, the TEAPOT lattice file used for ORBIT tracking has been made to give exactly same results to that with SAD model used for the RCS beam commissioning. In addition, time dependent lattice functions of the injection chicane magnets and similar other time dependent lattice imperfections, which are already found to have significant influences on the beam losses in the real machine have also been successfully introduced. At present, time dependent transverse and longitudinal impedances are going to be introduced. That should prove the ORBIT code much more matured for beam simulations in synchrotrons. Latest beam simulation results illustrating these new realistic features are presented.

	At the J-PARC Main Ring (MR), transverse instabilities have been observed during the injection and at the onset of acceleration with large particle losses. The present bunch by bunch feedback system, operating in a narrowband mode, has been effectively suppressing these instabilities, allowing the beam power to reach 230kW with only 400W of particle losses. The observed beam signals show that bunches are still executing complicated intra-bunch oscillations even if the narrowband feedback system is on, though they are not imposing significant particle losses at present. The new and more advanced broadband feedback system has been developed for control of the intra-bunch oscillations and further reduction of particle losses. The elaborate analysis code has been also developed on the MATLAB platform to analyse effects of the broadband feedback system on intra-bunch oscillations. This paper describes the development of these advanced instruments and presents the analysis of the latest beam test results using the MATLAB code.

	At 3GeV RCS in J-PARC, the kicker impedance has been considered to be the dominant source to cause the beam instability. Recently, experimental studies demonstrate that the beam instability is suppressed by reducing the kicker impedance. In this report, a trial to reduce the kicker impedance is reported.

	In the 3 GeV-RCS (Rapid cycling Synchrotron) in J-PARC (Japan Accelerator Research Complex) project, large-scale hydro-formed bellows were developed to adjust the gap between the ceramic ducts and/or between the ceramic ducts and the transport ducts. They have been equipped with a newly developed RF shield, because the usual beryllium-copper spring finger contacts were found to be very hard (roughly 1000 N/mm) owing to the large size. This contact is made of Ti braid, which consists of wires with a diameter of 0.3 mm. This RF contact is a kind of basket (with two ports) made with the braids. Because of the spring effect, the contact can change shape easily. In addition, the contact can easily connect the different cross sections in a smooth fashion. Furthermore, this structure is almost free from the dust generation, which is one of the most troublesome problems for the usual spring finger contacts. This time, we have constructed reserve bellows with the RF shield made of SUS 316L wires to improve the reliability of user operation. The outline of the bellows will be presented, especially laying emphasis on the mechanical function of the RF shield.
