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.

Large amount of beam monitors will be installed in J-PARC linac. Electrostatic computations are used to adjust the BPM cross-section parameters to obtain 50 Ω transmission lines. BPMs are designed to control the offset between quadrupole magnet and BPM electrical centers less than 0.1mm. We present a procedure of beam based calibration/alignment (BBC/BBA) method to confirm the displacement of linac BPMs. The fast current transformer (FCT) has response of relative bunch phase <1%. To measure the beam energy at every accelerator tank and injection point of 3 GeV RCS, phase difference of FCT pairs are used, and 10-4 order energy resolutions can be expected. The loss monitor system (BLM) is composed of scintillator and Ar-CH4/CO2 gas filled proportional counter. To prevent the activation and heat load by intense beam loss, fast time response of loss signals is required. Profile measurements can also be used to determine the beam emittance of a matched beam in a periodic focusing lattice. The thin sensing wire scanner (WS) has been designed to obtain a current density distribution of the beam. This paper describes the instruments and R&D result of beam monitors in J-PARC linac.
