  The J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) LINAC will be commissioned with energy of 181-MeV using 50 keV ion source, 3 MeV RFQ, 50 MeV DTL and 181 MeV SDTL (Separated DTL) on September 2006. It is planed to be upgraded by using 400 MeV ACS (Annular Coupled Structure), which is a high-beta structure most suitable for the J-PARC, in a few years from the commissioning. The first ACS cavity, which will be used as the first buncher between the SDTL and the ACS, is under fabrication. Detailed design and tuning procedure of ACS cavities has been studied with RF simulation analysis and cold-model measurements. The results of cold-model measurements, fabrication status, and related development items are described in this paper.

  A 324 MHz, 3 MeV RFQ (Radio-Frequency Quadrupole) linac with 3.115 m vane length is used as the first RF linac of the J-PARC linac. The results of the J-PARC linac end-to-end (from the RFQ entrance to the injection point of the RCS) simulations significantly depend on the initial particle distributions. In the transverse phase spaces, Gaussian particle distributions, whose parameters were decided to reproduce the emittance measured in the LEBT (Low Energy Beam Transport), was used at the entrance of the RFQ. Two simulation codes, PARMTEQM and TOUTATIS, were used to produce the particle distributions at the exit of the RFQ. Since the simulated emittances showed good agreements with the emittances measured at downstream of the RFQ, they were confirmed to have the validity to be used as the initial distribution of the end-to-end simulation.

  The first tank of the DTL for Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) was installed in the test facility at KEK. The DTL tank is 9.9 m in length and consists of the 76 cells. The resonant frequency of the tank is 324 MHz. After the installation of the tank, the high-power conditioning was carried out deliberately. Consequently the peak rf power of 1.3 MW (pulse repetition 50 Hz, pulse length 600 μs) was put into the tank stably. (The required power is about 1.1 MW for the designed accelerating field of 2.5 MV/m on the axis.) Following the conditioning, negative hydrogen beam, accelerated by the RFQ linac up to 3 MeV, was injected to the DTL and accelerated up to its design value of 19.7 MeV. The peak current of 30 mA was achieved with almost 100% transmission. In this paper, the conditioning history of the DTL and the result of the first beam test will be described.

  J-PARC linac consists of a 3 MeV RFQ linac, a 50 MeV DTL (Drift Tube Linac), a 190 MeV SDTL (Separate-type DTL), and a 400 MeV ACS (Annular-Coupled Structure) linac. Recently, the beam dynamics design of the ACS part has been slightly modified to reduce construction cost. Namely, the number of klystron modules are reduced from 23 to 21, and the number of accelerating cells in one klystron module is increased from 30 to 34 to maintain the total energy gain. This design change curtails the margin for RF power by around 5 %, and the total length of the ACS section is nearly unchanged. The beam matching section between SDTL and ACS is also revised correspondingly. These modifications of the design are described in this paper together with 3D particle simulation results for the new design.

  J-PARC linac has an RF chopper system to reduce uncontrolled beam loss in the succeeding ring injection. The chopper system is located in MEBT (Medium Energy Beam Transport line) between a 3 MeV RFQ and a 50 MeV DTL, and consists of two RFD (Radio-Frequency Deflection) cavities and a beam collector. During the rising- and falling-times of the RFD cavities, the beams are half-kicked and cause excess beam loss downstream. In this paper, the behavior of these half-kicked beams is examined with 3D PARMILA simulations, and resulting beam loss is estimated.

  In high-current proton linacs, prevention of excess beam loss is essentially important to enable hands-on maintenance. In addition, requirements on the momentum spread and transverse emittance are quite severe for J-PARC linac to realize effective injection to the succeeding RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron). As losses and beam-quality deterioration are believed to be mainly caused by various errors, such as misalignment, RF mistuning, etc, it is essentially important to perform particle simulations for J-PARC linac with as realistic errors as possible to estimate their effects. In this paper, effects of realistic errors on beam loss and beam-quality deterioration in J-PARC linac are examined with a systematic 3D simulations with PARMILA. Necessity of transverse collimation is also discussed.

  J-PARC linac consists of a 3 MeV RFQ linac, a 50 MeV DTL (Drift Tube Linac), a 190 MeV SDTL (Separate-type DTL), and a 400 MeV ACS (Annular-Coupled Structure) linac. In high-current proton linacs, precise tuning of RF amplitude and phase is indispensable to reduce uncontrolled beam loss and beam-quality deterioration. Especially, accurate RF tuning is essential for J-PARC linac, because requirement for the momentum spread is extremely severe to enable effective injection to the succeeding RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron). In this paper, planned tuning schemes for the DTL and SDTL are presented together with the beam diagnostic layout for the tuning.

  J-PARC linac consists of a 3 MeV RFQ linac, a 50 MeV DTL (Drift Tube Linac), a 190 MeV SDTL (Separate-type DTL), and a 400 MeV ACS (Annular-Coupled Structure) linac. As presented in a separate paper, we plan to perform phase-scan with precise TOF (Time Of Flight) beam-energy measurement in RF tuning of SDTL tanks. As a back-up method, we are considering to prepare an RF tuning scheme with rough TOF measurement for SDTL. In this paper, the principle of this scheme is presented, and its advantages and disadvantages are discussed based on a systematic particle simulation.

  In J-PARC, a MW class of proton accelerator is under construction. Improperly- tuned beam would critically result in unacceptable (>0.1%) energy loss. Systematic strategy of fine calibrations of the beam position monitor (BPM) detectors, is therefore required. First, Off-beam-line calibrations of BPMs are taken, with a dedicatedly- designed bench, which has a beam-simulating electric wire carrying 324 MHz. And then discrepancies are calibrated for each BPM between reconstructed electrical center of pick-up plates and measured mechanical center, before the installation of BPM on the beam line. Secondly, after BPMs are installed on the beam line, real beam is used for systematic calibrations (Beam Based Calibration (BBC)). The discrepancies are calibrated between electromagnetic center of Q-magnets and reconstructed beam position. In KEK we have the first stage of J-Parc LINAC with Ion source, RFQ, DTL, Q- and steering-magnets, and lots of BPMs. Implementation of BBC is going with SAD-language, which can also be used for beam steering and beam trajectory simulations, e.g. TRACE-3D. In this presentation, such strategic BPM calibration system will be intensively described.

  J-PARC linac consists of a 3 MeV RFQ linac, a 50 MeV DTL (Drift Tube Linac), a 190 MeV SDTL (Separate-type DTL), and a 400 MeV ACS (Annular-Coupled Structure) linac, and its total length is more than 400 m including the beam transport line to the succeeding RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron). In high-current proton accelerators, precise alignment of accelerator components is indispensable to reduce uncontrolled beam loss and beam quality deterioration. In this paper, planned schemes for the linac alignment is presented together with instrumentation for the long-term ground-motion watching.
