	In the J-PARC RCS, the beam tuning toward the design output beam power of 1MW were started after the completing of the beam energy and beam current upgrades in the LINAC. One of the important issues to achieve the 1MW beam operation is the optimization of the injection beam from the LINAC. Due to the longitudinal beam tuning in the LINAC, the momentum spread of the injected beam into the RCS was measured with the longitudinal tomography method. Our longitudinal tomography tool had been developed using the simple algorithm with the Convolution Back-Projection (CBP) method for the beam storage mode of the RCS. Accordingly, we improved this tool to expand into the acceleration mode.

	Conventional H⁻ stripping injection by using solid stripper foils in high intensity accelerators has many limitations concerning foil scattering beam losses, short lifetime of the foil including unexpected and rapid foil failure due to overheating of the foil. It is not only an issue for reliable machine operation but also for facility maintenance. In the 3-GeV RCS of J-PARC, the residual radiation level is extremely high not only near the injection area but also the used foil itself including the foil holder even at the present operation with one third of the designed 1 MW beam power. As an alternate method, later-assisted stripping of 1 GeV H⁻ beam has been intensively studied at SNS in Oak Ridge. The preparation for the next experiment is underway to demonstrate a three orders of magnitude improvement as compared to the earlier experiment. It is important to extend these studies for the lower H⁻ beam energies. In the same framework as in the SNS, laser stripping for the J-PARC H⁻ beam energy of 400 MeV has been studied in the present work. The real challenges and feasibilities at this lower energy are discussed in this paper.

Conventional H⁻ stripping injection by using solid stripper foils in high intensity accelerators has many limitations concerning foil scattering beam losses, short lifetime of the foil including unexpected and rapid foil failure due to overheating of the foil. It is not only an issue for reliable machine operation but also for facility maintenance. In the 3-GeV RCS of J-PARC, the residual radiation level is extremely high not only near the injection area but also the used foil itself including the foil holder even at the present operation with one third of the designed 1 MW beam power. As an alternate method, later-assisted stripping of 1 GeV H⁻ beam has been intensively studied at SNS in Oak Ridge. The preparation for the next experiment is underway to demonstrate a three orders of magnitude improvement as compared to the earlier experiment. It is important to extend these studies for the lower H⁻ beam energies. In the same framework as in the SNS, laser stripping for the J-PARC H⁻ beam energy of 400 MeV has been studied in the present work. The real challenges and feasibilities at this lower energy are discussed in this paper.
