  LINAC injector of J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) was recently successfully upgraded from 181 MeV to 400 MeV, applying a type of coupled cavity linac (CCL) structure ACS (Annular Coupled Structure). It was warmly discussed since very beginning on the wake field in the ACS cavities, where there are CCL modes with the same number as that of cells within ~50 MHz, possibly resonating with high intensity proton/H beams. One of the most important effects from the wake field is the influence on the ACS phase scan. Analytical and simulation studies, as well as the countermeasures were prepared before the energy upgrade. Fortunately we found that detuning of the ACS was unnecessary, which helped to save much work in the commissioning. In addition we got chance to make experiment studies. It was also discussed why the wake field is not so serious as we expected at the very beginning.

  We installed Annular-type Coupled Structure (ACS) linac in year 2013 in present linac downstream to extend the beam energy from 181 to 400 MeV. The beam commissioning had been conducted for one month in last December to January, and then we successfully extract 400 MeV beam. Whereas, we stably operate the linac at peak current of 15 mA, which is equivalent to 300 kW at the extraction of 3 GeV RCS, we observe unexpected residual radiations in ACS section. In this presentation, we review the recent progress in beam commissioning and beam loss study.

  In the J-PARC linac, Annular-type Coupled Structure (ACS) linac was introduced for the beam energy extension to 400 MeV in year 2013. To measure the longitudinal property of the ACS, we measured acceptance in phase direction by synchronous phase scan method and confirm that the acceptance is consistent with that by 3D PIC simulation. Simultaneously, the output beam energy from ACS was measured by orbit displacement where the dispersion is large. In this presentation, we discuss the measurement method and results.

  An energy upgrade project has started to achieve the design beam power of 1 MW at the exit of the downstream synchrotron in the J-PARC Linac since 2009. In the upgraded project, a beam energy in the Linac has increased from present 181 MeV to 400 MeV using the additional 21 annular-ring coupled structure (ACS) cavities. The new beam monitors as the beam current monitors, the phase monitors, the beam position monitors, the transverse profile monitors (wire scanner monitors) and the longitudinal profile monitors (bunch shape monitors) for the part where the ACS cavities were installed were designed, fabricated and calibrated. Till the end of November, 2013, all beam monitors were completed to be installed. From the middle of December, we started the beam commissioning to achieve the beam energy as 400 MeV, as well as to confirm the beam monitor functioning. We achieved the 400 MeV beam acceleration at the middle of January, 2014 using newly installed beam monitors. This paper describes the beam monitor installation, calibration and the beam commissioning results of beam monitor functioning.
