  The J-PARC accelerator comprises an injector linac, a 3 GeV Rapid-Cycling Synchrotron and a 50 GeV Main Ring. The J-PARC linac has been operating for users with the beam energy of 181 MeV. The energy (to 400 MeV) and current (to 50 mA) upgrade of the linac is scheduled for 1MW operation at RCS. For the current upgrade, the fabrication of a new RFQ, which is designed for 50 mA acceleration, has been started. The engineering design and the fabrication technologies were carefully chosen to reduce the discharge risk during the operation. For good vacuum pumping, vanes and ports are brazed for the direct pumping through slits at the tuners. Also, we tried a chemical polishing to improve the smoothness of the vane surface. In this paper, we present the fabrication progress of a new RFQ in J-PARC linac.

  In this paper, we will report recent topics about J-PARC RFQs. First, the operating RFQ (RFQ I) have been recovered from the long shutdown due to the earthquake. This RFQ have been suffered from breakdown problem since 2008, therefore we have been developing a back-up RFQ (RFQ II). In April 2012, the high power test was successfully performed. Finally, we are fabricating a new RFQ for the beam-current upgrade of the J-PARC linac (RFQ III). The status of these RFQs are described.
