MR power improvement scenario RCSMRBeam transfer fraction 15
MR Power Improvement Scenario toward MW-class power frontier machine ― KEK Roadmap ― Achieved ! Combination of High rep. cycle and High beam density
Items for Acc. upgrade • Ion source & Front-end • LINAC energy 181 400MeV • Current design 30mA 50mA • RF system • R&D for High Vgap RF is in progress • MR power supply for rapid cycle operation. • Downsizing & distributed system • Ex. Power-supply for MR bending magnet: 6 24 • Beam-loss management • Collimator shield should be reinforced.
Primary proton beam-line Bend the beam by ~80 Using Super-conducting combined function Magnets Beam profile monitor Beam position monitor NC magnets Using MIC (Mineral-insulation-cable) Secured operation is important for high intensity beam. Allowable beam loss: ~1W/m.

Points for n beam-line for 1.6MW J-PARC n beam-line can handle 1.6MW beam by improving of each equipments! • Strength of the equipments which are exposed with beam directly: Target, beam window, Profile monitor. • Thermal shock is proportional to # of protons / pulse. It is OK for power upgrade by increasing the cycle. • Cooling power should be improved. • Cyclic fatigue for the horn, target, etc increases. • Lifetime / Maintenance cycle may be shortened. Improving the remote maintenance, Cost-down of the equipments is important. • Radiation protection • Thickness of tunnel wall for TS / DV / Dump is OK for 3~4MW. • The activation of equipments / cooling water / air of area, etc is proportional to beam power. • It may necessary to improve the air ventilation / drainage water system to increase the dilution rate.
Summary • Main goal of future n experiment at J-PARC • Search for CP violation in n oscillation. • Future n experiment proposals • LAr TPC @ ~660km • On-axis, Measure the 2nd oscillation maximum • Hyper-K @ ~300km • Off-axis, Measure n and anti-n difference • J-PARC: Accelerator & n beam-line • Current: 30GeV, ~120kW beam supplied to T2K Aiming ~400kW in 2012 in current power-up scenario • J-PARC upgrade plan • ~1.7MW by improving the each components. • Strategy: Increasing the repetition rate & protons/pulse.
