A new detector element with a smaller pixel size is developed for a multiwire-type neutron detector with an individual readout method. The pixel size of the developed element is 0.8 0.8 mm, and the element consist of multiwire anodes for the gaseous amplification and circular-shaped cathode bumps for collecting the charges generated by neutrons and detecting the position of incident neutrons. The sensitive area was 102.4 102.4 mm with a pitch of 0.8 mm in X and Y directions. Uniform neutron irradiation tests for the developed detector element were conducted by using a Cf-252 neutron source. As a result, excellent uniformity was exhibited as a two-dimensional neutron detector system, and the spread of neutron counts in all pixels was 9.9%. The position resolution was 1.89 mm at half-maximum. The measured gamma sensitivity using a Co-60 source was 3.87 10
and the background count rate was 8.22 10
cps/pixel.

Upgrade of two two-dimensional scintillation neutron detectors for SENJU diffractometer at the Materials and Life science experimental Facility in the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC MLF) is underway. The current status of detector development for this project is briefly reviewed. The detector upgrade plan includes detector developments such as thin add-in detectors, high efficiency detectors to replace the original detectors, a large area detector placed under the sample vacuum tank, rectangular shaped one-bank detectors. All of these new detectors are developed based on 
Li:ZnS scintillators and WLS fibers. Recently, we developed a detector with a detection area four times larger than the original one (2 2 size, 512 512 mm). Based on these results, work is now underway to further expand the detector area with rectangular shape of 1 3 (256 768 mm) and 2 3 (512 768 mm). The design and experimental results of the prototype detectors will be presented.

The 3-GeV proton beam from the rapid cycling synchrotron (RCS) of J-PARC is transported to the spallation neutron source at Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF) by a 3-GeV RCS to Neutron facility Beam Transport (3NBT) line. Recently, the first design idea of a new proton beam transport line has been proposed for a future target station of the MLF (TS2). In the present study, proton beam transport is simulated near the TS2 target where a bending magnet and a solenoid are located for muon beam transport. The purposes are to clarify the magnetic field effects on the proton beam by the magnets and to present a method to correct each effect. Orbit deviation by the bending magnet and vertical size expansion due to profile rotation by the solenoid can be corrected by installing additional bending magnets and a solenoid with reversal magnetic field, respectively. The correction method is expected to be effective and also needs to be studied further for detail design.

A muon linear accelerator is under development at J-PARC for precise measurement of the muon anomalous magnetic moment (g-2) and electric dipole moment (EDM). Adisk-and-washer (DAW) structure is employed to accelerate muons from 30% of the speed of light (kinetic energy 4 MeV) to 70% (40 MeV) at 1296 MHz. The muon DAWconsists of tanks accelerating the muons and bridge couplers that couple the tanks and focus the beam using an internal quadrupole doublet. A bridge-coupler prototype is currently being fabricated and will be tested. This paper presents the design and performance evaluation of the bridge coupler prototype.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：0.00(Physics, Particles & Fields)An internal antenna type RF driven negative hydrogen (H) ion source supplies beams to the J-PARC accelerator facility. The H ion beam current exhibits high stability, while it fluctuates with less than 5% amplitude of the DC current when a Faraday cup measures the current extracted from the source mounted on a test stand. Two frequencies are identified as the main oscillation components, 2 MHz and 4 MHz which are the driving RF frequency and the second harmonics, respectively. The amplitude levels of these components appear larger as parts of the beam directing specific angles passing through a slit are detected. A possible reason for observing a small amplitude oscillation in the total beam intensity is the averaged phase-shift of the local beam depending upon the position of the H ion production and the succeeding trajectory reaching the Faraday cup. To confirm if the phase-shift is the main reason for diminishing the oscillation amplitude for the total beam, the phase-shift between the 2 MHz and 4 MHz components were measured for beams passing through a 0.1 mm slit coupled to a Faraday cup having a 0.1 mm entrance slit. The result indicated the phase-shift changed substantially depending upon the position, but no simple model can explain the measured spatial distribution of the phase-shift. Further attempts will be made to clarify the beam dynamics relevant to the H ion beam transport including the measurements of the beam current phase-shift with respect to the RF antenna current, and the time evolution of Balmer-
light emission.

O injections were required. The very high plasma etectrode temperature (T
) of 245
C suggests a novel cesiation surviving against high T and plasma bombardments. A procedure based upon a hypothesis of the HO (chemically bound with Mo) mediated cesiation was examined. The innovative cesiation derived a 76.5 keV 145 mA beam stably with the small beam fluctuation and transverse emittances suitable for RFQs of high energy LINACs. Furthermore, the beam intensity for the J-PARC IS operation energy of 52.5 keV was increased from 72 mA to 83 mA which should contribute for the stable J-PARC LINAC 60 mA operation in near future.

Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.00(Physics, Particles & Fields)We have been conducting the test of a new J-PARC-made internal antenna for the J-PARC RF-driven cesiated H ion source. After the development of the first J-PARC-made antenna, the composition of the porcelain enamel coating of the antenna was changed because we were afraid of the outgassing of the impurities from the previous antenna coating. During the test of high-density plasma production by the new antenna, we monitored the outgassing characteristics of the new antenna by measuring mass spectrometry and optical spectrum analysis. It is confirmed that no remarkable impurities were emitted from the new antenna. We also carried out the H beam extraction and measured the H beam characteristics by using the new antenna. It is found that the emittances of the H beam extracted from the J-PARC RF-driven cesiated H ion source by using the new antenna were similar to those in the case by using the SNS-made antenna. To accelerate the endurance test of the new antenna, we applied the antenna for the high-density plasma production to the 5% duty factor (1 ms pulse width with 50 Hz repetition rate) with the 2 MHz RF input power of approximately 60 kW, whose values were much higher than those in the J-PARC nominal operation; 0.8 ms pulse width with 25 Hz repetition rate (the duty factor of 2%) with the RF input power of approximately 30 kW. This presentation shows the results of the characteristics of the new J-PARC-made antenna and discusses the feasibility of the new antenna for use in the J-PARC accelerator operation.

The calculation domain is in vicinity of the single beam aperture in J-PARC ion source configuration. In order to understand relation between the plasma density oscillation and the extracted H beam characteristics, the input electron and proton fluxes from the driver region are varied parametrically with the 1st and the 2nd harmonics of the J-PARC RF frequency (2 or 4 MHz). The numerical results give an idea to the main physical processes between the oscillations of the plasma parameters and the extracted H ion trajectories in the different RF phases. Countermeasures to reduce the oscillation mechanisms are also discussed in the presentation.

The base circuit uses an induction voltage superposition circuit of the LTD method, and the semiconductor module circuit consists of a radial symmetry type that achieves low noise. The three main parts of an existing kicker power supply, the thyratron, PFN circuit, and end clipper, can be configured in a single module circuit. The power supply consists of a main circuit module board that forms a trapezoidal pulse and a correction circuit module board that compensates for droop of the flat section. The thirty-two main circuit module boards and twenty correction circuit module boards are connected in series in a hierarchical manner to achieve the waveform specifications required for J-PARC RCS kicker power supplies. In addition, an insulating cylinder for conductors has been developed that suppresses corona discharge and withstands continuous operation for long periods of time.

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.

Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.00(Physics, Atomic, Molecular & Chemical)The mitigation of heat loading is one of the important issues for beam instrumentation to measure the high-power proton beam. Recently, the highly-oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) material was used for the target probe of the bunch-shape monitor at the front-end in the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC). Since the thermal conductivity of the HOPG is high, it is suitable to measure the beam profile under the condition of high heat loading. As an application of the HOPG, for example, the thin HOPG may be used as a substitutive material of the target wire for the transverse profile monitor such as the wire scanner monitor. The possibility of the HOPG target for the beam profile monitor is discussed from some results of the test experiment using the 3-MeV negative hydrogen ion beam at the test stand.
