  Annular-ring Coupled Structure (ACS) cavities have been installed to increase the beam energy of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) linac from 181 to 400 MeV in the maintenance period of 2013. Some of the pillbox type input couplers with a ceramic window to the ACS cavity have a larger coupling factor than the target value by an avoidable manufacturing error. To adjust the coupling factor, a capacitive iris was introduced in the rectangular waveguide near the coupler. As a result, it has been confirmed that the iris decreases the coupling factor to a target value without any significant increase in temperature and in a discharge rate during high-power operation. In this paper, the design procedure of the capacitive iris and the result of the coupling factor adjustment are presented.

  J-PARC has installed the Annular-ring Coupled Structure (ACS) linac to increase the beam energy up to 400 MeV. One ACS module is composed of two accelerating tanks which are coupled by the bridge cavity. The bridge cavity simplifies the handling of the multi-tank system. While it is possible to feed the RF power into the each tanks directly with the power divider and the phase shifter instead of the bridge cavity. The rf properties of the ACS linac with the direct rf-power supply system has been measured by using the low power model made of aluminum. The measured results are described in the paper.
