Longitudinal phase space tomography is an effective measurement tool for acquiring the longitudinal phase space distribution. For the J-PARC synchrotrons, tomography, which can take into account the beam dynamics such as longitudinal space charge effect and nonlinearity, is desired, as the beam power increases. In this study, for the J-PARC synchrotron, the CERN's tomography, which employs the hybrid algorithm that can consider the beam dynamics for reconstruction, is introduced and benchmarked. The benchmark results show that the CERN's tomography has the ability to measure the longitudinal phase space distribution accurately, in the high-power beam operation at the J-PARC synchrotrons.

Reliability in high power hadron accelerators is a major issue, particularly for Accelerator Driven Systems (ADS). For example, the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) ADS maximum frequency of beam trips longer than 5 min was set to 42 per year. A significant number of breakdowns are caused by the failure of accelerating cavities or by their associated systems. Hence, we studied how these can be effectively reduced. To this end, we developed the numerical tool LightWin that aims to determine the compensation settings for any superconducting (SC) linac automatically and systematically. This tool has been successfully used for the MYRRHA SC linac. In this work, we applied LightWin to compensate for several failure scenarios involving the last section of the JAEA ADS linac and compared the associated retuned settings and beam performance to those found in a previous study with TraceWin.

The Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) is designing a 30 MW continuous wave (cw) superconducting proton linear accelerator (linac) for the Accelerator Driven System (ADS) proposal. The JAEA-ADS linacs ion source must provide a proton beam over 20 mA with an energy of 35 keV and a normalized rms emittance of less than 0.1 
mm mrad. As the extraction system determines the beam properties and quality, systematic optimizations on the geometry and input values of the extraction system design were conducted using the AXCEL-INP 2-D simulation program to satisfy the goal requirements. This work describes the extraction system design and reports the beam dynamics results of the first study for the proton source of the JAEA-ADS linac.

We are developing gamma-ray-induced positron annihilation spectroscopy (GiPAS) using ultra-short pulsed gamma rays at the UVSOR synchrotron facility in Japan. The gamma rays with the pulse width of picosecond range are generated by 90-degree inverse Compton scattering between a 750 MeV electron beam and an 800 nm laser. As the energy of the gamma rays is 6.6 MeV, gamma-ray irradiation produces positrons by pair production inside the material. Generated positrons localize on atomic-scale defects in solid crystals, such as vacancies, dislocations, and vacancy clusters. Positronium, the bound state of an electron-positron pair, localizes in vacant space caused by the free volume in polymers. Therefore, positrons are excellent probes of the nanostructure of these materials. Furthermore, the circularly polarized gamma rays generated by a circularly polarized laser can produce spin polarized positrons. The spin polarized positrons provide additional information about the electron spins around defects. GiPAS is currently available for users in UVSOR-III.
