| TUPD016 | Grounding and Induced Voltage Issues of the Injection Bump Magnet System of the 3-GeV RCS in J-PARC | 1461 |
|

| The power supply of the injection shift bump magnets is required to rate a large current with high precision. The rating current is 20 kA and the pulse width is 1.3 ms. The power supply with the multiple connected two-quadrant IGBT choppers, which is controlled by the switching frequency over 48 kHz, realizes the tracking error less than 1.0 %. However, the switching noise due to the IGBT choppers caused damages to the control device and the measuring instrument. The ground cables were changed to copper sheets, so that the voltage due to the switching noise between the power supply board and the ground decreased from 800 V to 40 V. Furthermore, the output voltage of the RF shield was measured in connection with the several waveform patterns. These results showed the good agreement with the calculation and the experiment. The good performances of the shift bump magnet and power supply have been confirmed. | ||
| TUPC034 | Beam Instrumentations for the J-PARC RCS Commissioning | 1125 |
|
||
| A 3-GeV Rapid-Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) of the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) has been commissioned recently. During its beam commissioning, various beam diagnostic instrumentation has been used. The multi-wire profile monitor (MWPM) is used to establish injection and H0 dump line, which transports un-stripped H- or H0 beam to the dump. The electron catcher confirms that the beam hits a charge exchange carbon foil and the specified current monitor limits the beam current to the H0 dump. Single pass BPMs which detect linac frequency (324MHz) and ionization profile monitors (IPM) help to check the one pass orbit without circulation of the beam. The beam position monitor (BPM) can measure both COD and turn-by-turn position. Tune monitor system consists of exciter and its own BPM. The exciter shakes the beam and coherent oscillation is measured at BPM. Dedicated BPMs, Fast CT (FCT) and Wall Current Monitor (WCM) are used for RF feedback or feedforward control. It will describe the performance of each instruments and how they are contributed to the successful beam commissioning. | ||
| WEPC035 | Present Status of PF-ring and PF-AR in KEK | 2064 |
|
||
| In KEK, we have two synchrotron light sources which were constructed in the early 1980s. One is the Photon Factory storage ring (PF-ring) and the other is the Photon Factory advanced ring (PF-AR). The PF-ring is usually operated at 2.5 GeV and sometimes ramped up to 3.0 GeV to provide photons with the energy from VUV to hard X-ray region. The PF-AR is mostly operated in a single-bunch mode of 6.5GeV to provide pulsed hard X-rays. Operational performances of them have been upgraded through several reinforcements. After the reconstruction of the straight section of the PF-ring in 2005, two short-period-gap undulators have been stably operated. They allow us to produce higher brilliant hard X-rays even at the energy of 2.5 GeV. In March 2008, the circular polarized undulator will be installed in the long straight section of 8.9 m. In the PF-AR, new tandem undulators have been operated since September 2006 to generate much stronger pulsed hard X-rays for the sub-ns resolved X-ray diffraction experiments. In this conference, we report present status of the PF-ring and the PF-AR. | ||
| THPP097 | Commissioning Results of the Kicker Magnet in J-PARC RCS | 3590 |
|
||
| Installation of the kickers in the extraction section of the RCS in J-PARC facility was completed. And they succeeded to extract the 3GeV proton beams in the first beam test. The operation parameters of the kickers agreed well with the parameters which were estimated from the magnetic field measurement and the current test of the power supplys. In this report, we summarized the results of the excitation test and the commissioning of the kicker magnet. The results of the magnetic field measurement showed the good uniformity in the wide range of the aperture. The characteristic feature of each kicker power supply was also measured precisely. Although the rise time and jitter of the output pulse have some minor variation due to the different characteristics of the thyratrons, the degree of variation was acceptably small. Combining the results of the magnetic field measurements, the relation between the charging voltage and the magnetic field was obtained for each kicker. The accelerated beam was successfully extracted at the operation parameters which were obtained from the relationship. The measurements result which was obtained by using the beam is also reported. | ||
| THPP112 | Leakage Field of Septum Magnets of 3 GeV RCS at J-PARC | 3626 |
|
||
| Septum magnets are installed in RCS (Rapid cycling Synchrotron) at J-PARC for the beam injection and extraction. In order to realize MW beam in the RCS ring and reduce the beam loss during the beam injection and extraction, the septum magnets have large physical aperture and are operated in DC. Thus there are high magnetic fields in the gaps during the acceleration, but the leakage fields are nevertheless suppressed down to a few Gauss to suppress the closed orbit distortion. In order to reduce the magnetic leakage field from the septa at beam orbit in the RCS ring, the silicon steel sheets are set for magnetic shield. In addition a few ring vacuum chambers are made by the magnetic stainless steel. Up to now, the development and field measurement of the septum magnets has been finished, and the beam commissioning of the RCS are carried out. In this presentation, the field measurements of the septum magnets are summarized and the influences of the leakage field upon the beam orbit are reported. | ||
| THPP134 | Injection and Extraction DC Magnets Power Supplies for 3GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron of J-PARC | 3676 |
|

Proton beams have been successfully accelerated to the design energy of 3 GeV in the RCS at the J-PARC*. In the injection, dump and extraction sections of the RCS, septum magnets, a quadrupole magnet, dc kicker magnets and steering magnets have been installed and operated at DC. For the septum magnets, there is little space area available for the septum coil and a magnetic shield**. Therefore the power supplies are required high excitation current. Maximum currents of the injection and dump septum magnets are less than 7 kA. The extraction septum magnets need the maximum current of 12 kA***. For saving the cost and the installation space of the extraction septum magnets power supplies, a main power supply, which excites three extraction septum magnets in series, and three auxiliary power supplies for adjusting the current to the each magnet are employed. Long-term stability and the current ripples are required to be less than the order of 100 ppm for those power supplies in order to provide the required acceptance for the beams. This presentation shows design and measurements of the the injection and extraction DC power supplies.
