A series of studies has been carried out to understand and alleviate the beam losses in the CERN PS proton Synchrotron. In particular, losses appear at transition crossing during the pulsing of special quadrupoles used to create a gamma jump scheme and which causes a large optics and orbit distortion. After a brief summary of the gamma jump scheme at the PS, experimental and simulation results about the loss studies and reduction are presented.
