| TUPLS108 | Realization of Thick Hybrid Type Carbon Stripper Foils with High Durability at 1800K for RCS of J-PARC | 1753 |
|
||
| The J-PARC requires thick carbon stripper foils (250-500 ug/cm2) to strip electrons from the H-beam supplied by the linac before injection into a 3 GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron. The 200 MeV H- beam from the linac has a pulse length of 0.5 ms with a repetition rate of 25 Hz and an average beam current of 335 uA. By much energy deposition of these high-intensity H- and circulating bunched beams, commercially available best stripper foils (CM) will break in a very short time and even a diamond foil will rupture at around 1800K by MW class accelerators. We have realized for first time the hybrid boron doped carbon stripper foils with long life time for J-PARC. The foils of 250-500 ug/cm2 were made by a controlled DC arc-discharge method. The lifetime was tested by using 3.2 MeV Ne+ DC beam of 2.5 uA and 750 keV H- DC beam of 500 uA, in which a significant amount of energy was deposited in the foils. The maximum lifetime was extremely long, 120- and 480-times than those of diamond and CM foils. The foils were also free from any shrinkage, and showed low thickness reduction rate even at high temperature of 1800K during long time irradiation of 90h. | ||
| TUPLS110 | Measurement of the Extraction Kicker System in J-PARC RCS | 1759 |

Kicker magnet system in the J-PARC RCS is now under construction at JAEA (Japan Atomic Energy Agency). Their role in RCS is to kick the accelerated 3 GeV proton beam to the following extraction line at a repetition rate of 25 Hz. There are three kinds of kicker magnets (S, M, L), distinguished by the difference in the size of their apertures. The specification of 2 % is required on the magnetic field in terms of homogeneity in time and space from the beam optical point of view. The required flatness of the temporal uniformity was accomplished by superposing the waveforms of the two kicker magnet*. The required specification to the special uniformity is also very severe to achieve because our kicker magnet is designed with a large aperture in order to accept a maximum beam power of 1 MW. We established the search coil as a detector and 3-axes stage to perform magnetic field mapping. In order to reduce the signal noises and detect the stable output signals, matching register and integrated circuit were carefully selected. The 3-axes stage was precisely aligned. The distribution of the magnetic field (By) and integrated BL were systematically measured for the three types of kickers.

| TUPLS111 | Experimental Results of the Shift Bump Magnet in the J-PARC 3-GeV RCS | 1762 |
|
||
| The shift bump magnet produces a fixed main bump orbit to merge the injection beam into the circulating beam. In order to control the injection beam for the short injection time (500 microseconds) with sufficient accuracy, the shift bump magnet needs a wide uniform magnetic field and the high speed exciting pattern of the high current. The magnetic field design and the structural analysis of the shift bump magnets have been performed using three-dimensional electromagnetic analysis code and mechanical analysis code, respectively. The magnetic field distributions were measured with a long search coil, thus giving a BL product over a magnet gap area. The temperature distributions at the various points of the magnet were measured by thermocouples over 24 hours till they saturated. General trend of these measurements agrees well with calculations. | ||
| TUPLS112 | Present Status of Injection and Extraction System of 3 GeV RCS at J-PARC | 1765 |
|
||
| The injection and extraction system for 3GeV RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron) at J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) have many challenging issues, in order to realize MW beam in the RCS ring. The system is consisted in 3 parts, such as the injection line, the dump line, and the extraction line. And they are constructed from many kinds of components, such as DC and pulse magnets, a charge exchange system, beam monitors, titanium and ceramic vacuum chamber, a beam dump, and so on. Up to now, final designs are accomplished and developments and experiments of some components are carried out. In this presentation, summary of the injection and extraction system, recent status of developments, and beam commissioning scheme for beam injection and extraction are introduced. | ||
| TUPLS113 | Designs of Septum Magnet at 3 GeV RCS in J-PARC | 1768 |
|
||
| 3 GeV RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron) at J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) consists in many kinds of septum magnets. There are two septum magnets to inject the beam into the ring, three septum magnets to extract the beam for the users, and two septum magnets to dump the beam which can not be exchanged its charge at the first foil. In order to reduce the magnetic leakage field from the septum magnets at the beam orbit in the ring, the silicon steel sheets are set at the outside of the septum magnets for the magnetic shields. However sufficient spaces to set the thick magnetic shields are not securable at the divergent duct areas. Therefore the vacuum chambers are made by the magnetic stainless steel and the leakage fields in the chambers can be reduced. As results of the 3D field calculations by TOSCA, the magnetic leakage field can be suppressed to a few Gauss or less. |
