  The most important issue in realizing such a MW-class high-power routine beam operation is to keep machine activations within a permissible level, that is, to preserve a better hands-on-maintenance environment. Thus, a large fraction of our effort has been concentrated on reducing and managing beam losses. However the high residual activation is appeared around the stripper foils. It is caused by not primary particles due to the beam losses but secondary particles due to nuclear reaction at the foil. This radio-activation is an intrinsically serious problem for the RCS which adopts the charge exchange multi-turn beam injection scheme with the stripper foil. In this presentation, we report a detail measurement of the residual dose around the stripper foil together with the cause estimated based on simulation studies.

  The J-PARC 3-GeV rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) has two functions; one as a proton driver to produce pulsed muons and neutrons, and the other as an injector to the following 50-GeV main ring (MR). RCS is now intensively developing a high-intensity beam test to realize a high-intensity low-emittance beam with less beam halo required from MR. This paper presents the recent experimental results, together with detailed discussions for the emittance growth and its mitigation mechanisms.
