Times Cited Count:6 Percentile:84.97(Nuclear Science & Technology)In the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex, the purpose of the 3 GeV rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) is to accelerate a 1 MW, high-intensity proton beam. To achieve beam operation at a repetition rate of 25 Hz at high intensities, the RCS was elaborately designed. After starting the RCS operation, we carefully verified the validity of its design and made certain improvements to establish a reliable operation at higher power as possible. Consequently, we demonstrated beam operation at a high power, namely, 1 MW. We then summarized the design, actual performance, and improvements of the RCS to achieve a 1 MW beam.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:75.73(Materials Science, Coatings & Films)The HBC foil are installed in the J-PARC RCS for the charge-exchange H beam injection. In order to examine the characteristics of the HBC foils, beam studies for the HBC foil were carried out from the viewpoint of foil's life time and the beam survival rate due to foils. According to the compromise between charge-exchange efficiency and foil scattering beam loss, we optimized the foils thickness for user operation. The long-term observation during the user operation as well as the HBC foil endurance test for its life time evaluation was carried out. Even after one year was operation, there was no deterioration of the stripping foil.

The ()ybrid type thick ()oron-doped ()arbon (HBC) stripping foils are installed and used for the beam injection at the 3GeV RCS (Rapid Cycling Synchrotron) in J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex). Up to now, the performance deterioration of the stripping foils can not be seen after the long beam irradiation for the 120kW user operation and 300kW high power beam demonstration at the RCS. In order to examine the characteristic of the HBC foils, various beam studies were carried out. The beam-irradiated spot at the foil was measured by scanning the foil setting position, the charge exchange efficiency was evaluated with various thickness foils, and the effect of the SiC fibers supporting the foil mounting was checked with different mounting foils. Beam study results obtained with using the HBC foils will be presented. In addition, the trends of outgas from the stripping foils and the deformations of the foils during the beam irradiation will be reported.
