  Multi-turn painting injection scheme is important for high intensity proton accelerators. At the J-PARC RCS, a transverse painting scheme was adapted by adding vertical painting magnets to the beam transport line before the injection point, with horizontal painting being performed by a set of dedicated pulse magnets in the ring. To establish a transverse painting condition, it is usual to base on the pulse magnet current pattern. However, it is more desirable to directly measure the beam orbit time variation for evaluation. A linac beam was chopped to match the ring RF bucket. We thought that it would be difficult to measure the position for each pulse; however, the average position could be extracted by introducing a particular device. For the beam injected into the ring, because the linac RF frequency component was diminished due to debunching quickly, one could determine its position in the beginning of the injection period. However, due to rebunching effect the position determination becomes difficult. This problem needs to be resolved.

  The J-PARC is a high intensity proton facility and the accelerator consists of a 400 MeV linac, a 3 GeV Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS) and a Main Ring Synchrotron (MR). We have taken many hardware upgrades. The beam powers for the neutrino experiment and hadron experiment from the MR have been steadily increased by tuning and reducing beam losses. The designed 1 MW equivalent beam was demonstrated and user program was performed at 500 kW from the RCS to the neutron and muon experiments. We have experienced many failures and troubles, however, to impede full potential and high availability. In this report, operational performance and status of the J-PARC accelerators are presented.

  At the timing system for J-PARC Linac and Rapid Cycling Synchrotron (RCS), the distribution of timing information (beam tag, type, etc.) and the monitoring and control of timing system are performed via the reflective memory (RFM). The more 10 years elapsed after operation start of J-PARC. Therefore, it is concerned about the occurrence of malfunctions due to time-related deterioration of the devices of timing system. Especially, the malfunctions of a management computer to monitor and control the all timing devices and RFMs to configure the timing system data network have a significant impact. Then, the management computer was renewed and PCI-Express RFMs are installed instead of PCI RFMs. However, after renewal computer, the trouble by data corruption of RFM network was happened anew. In this paper, the contents and the results our cause investigation of data corruption and those of the measures employed for stabilizing the timing system operation are presented.
