  In linear accelerators, dispersion caused by quadrupole misalignment and transverse wake-field effect caused by alignment errors of accelerate structures will lead to a significant emittance growth. There are more stringent restrictions on SXFEL, the traditional optical alignment can no longer meet its requirements, but the Beam-Based Alignment(BBA) method allows more precise alignment, further reduce the Linac errors to meet SXFEL requirements .In undulator sections, orbit changes are not only caused by misalignments of quadrupole magnet position ,but also the errors of undulator magnetic. In order to achieve alignment accuracy over longer distance, we measuring BPM data under different conditions and using SVD algorithm for calculation and analysis, we can get the quadrupole magnet errors and BPM offset. With the method above, software based on MATLAB has been designed and compared the results with other software.

  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 present advanced techniques for the construction of half-wave resonator cryomodules. Recent advances in superconducting low-beta cavity design and processing have yielded dramatically improved cavity performance which reduce accelerator cost and improve operational reliability. This improvement has led to the proposal and construction of half-wave resonators by ANL for the acceleration of 0.1 < \beta < 0.5 ions, e.g., the SARAF Phase-II project at SNRC (SOREQ, Israel) and Project-X at Fermilab. These cryomodules build and improve upon designs and techniques recently implemented in upgrades to ATLAS at ANL. Design issues include the ease of assembly/maintenance, resonator cleanliness, operating at 2 or 4 Kelvin, and ancillary system interfacing.

  The J-PARC facilities had big damages because of the earthquake on March 11, 2011. The J-PARC linac in the tunnel had also damages. For instance the alignment of the cavity was deformed more than 40 mm and there had been observed about 0.2 mm in horizontal direction for a few DTs in the DTL. However, as the result of the recovery work which includes the re-alignment and re-conditioning of whole cavities, we were able to restart the beam acceleration of the linac. The stability of the DTL and SDTL has returned to the state before the earthquake except for a few tanks of SDTL. In this paper, we will present the recovery works from the earthquake and the operating status of the DTL and the SDTL.
