  We have been successfully commissioned two pulse steering magnets installed in the Linac to 3-GeV RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron) injection beam transport (BT) line of J-PARC. RCS has to deliver a simultaneous as well as specific beam as demand by the downstream facilities of MLF (Material and Life Science Facility) and the MR (Main Ring). In order to obtain relatively a smaller transverse emittance at extraction, those magnets were designed to perform a smaller injection painting for the MR beam as compared to the MLF one. As stripper foil position is fixed for the charge exchange H injection, inclination of the injected beam centroid on foil for the MR beam is only moved to a smaller value by the pulse steering magnets, while DC septum magnets are fixed as determined first for the MLF beam. Their parameters were found to be very consistent with expectation and thus already in operation for switching to a painting area of 100 pi mm mrad for the MR beam as compared to that of 150 pi mm mrad for the MLF beam.

  In the J-PARC 3-GeV Synchrotron, dipole magnets and seven families of quadrupole magnets are excited with a DC-biased 25 Hz sinusoidal waveforms using an individual resonant circuits. This paper proposed a feedback system to improve the amplitude and phase stability, specially against variation of capacitance caused by temperature characteristics in the resonant circuits. The control system has been successfully demonstrated and achieved amplitude and phase stability under ±0.005% and ±0.5 uS, respectively.

  Misalignment of several millimeters of the magnets of J-PARC 3GeV RCS in both horizontal and vertical directions was caused by the Tohoku Region Pacific Coast Earthquake on March 11, 2011. As the result of orbit calculation showed that the beam loss was acceptable for beam operation at 300kW, beam operation with the current placement has been implemented. Realignment of the equipment will be carried out from August to December in 2013. Survey carried out in the summer of 2013 found out misalignment of ceramic vacuum ducts therefore their positioning is necessary. In this paper, these measurement result and latest alignment plan for J-PARC 3GeV RCS are reported.

  which rapidly correct the tunes, are planned to be installed during the summer shutdown in 2013. The characteristic of the excitation pattern of such quadrupoles (quadrupole corrector) is their fast change of magnetic field, which are more than 200T/s at the fastest point. In this report, we describe a deliberation flow about the design of a vacuum chamber, which is installed in the quadrupole corrector. The effect of eddy current was calculated in the case of the current titanium vacuum chamber. The results showed that the temperature rise was too much (up to ~350oC) and the magnetic field in the vacuum chamber is largely distorted by the eddy current. Therefore we decided to employ an alumina ceramics vacuum chamber, for which we have a past achievement in RCS*. We estimated the displacement and stress, which is caused by the atmospheric pressure, for the alumina ceramics vacuum chamber and vacuum component around it by making the calculation model for the finite element method. It was found that there was no large displacement and stress by installing the alumina ceramics vacuum chamber.

  The injection energy of the J-PARC RCS will be upgraded in 2013. New power supplies for the shift bump magnet system will be installed. Some of other systems, upgrade of the painting bump power supplies and pulse steering systems, are already installed and tested or used for the nominal operation. The paper reports the progress of injection energy upgrade project.
