  The 3-GeV RCS of J-PARC now operates at high-intensity to nearly the designed 1 MW beam. The beam loss and the corresponding residual radiation is one of the key limitations against beam intensity ramp up. Recently, by a series of beam studies and feedback from numerical simulations, we have well mitigated the beam loss to a minimum level and also reduced the beam emittances for beam operation to the spallation neutron source as well as to the main ring. The residual beam loss at the designed 1 MW beam power occurs mostly due to the unavoidable foil scattering beam loss during multi-turn injection, while other beam loss sources have been well mitigated to realize a stable and higher availability beam operation at a nearly 1 MW beam power.

  In the framework of the LHC Injector Upgrade project, a new internal dump for the CERN Proton Synchrotron (PS) has been designed, installed, and successfully commissioned. This device is meant to move rapidly into the beam and stop charged particles over several turns to provide protection to the PS hardware against beam-induced damage. The performance of the dump should ensure efficient use throughout the PS energy range, i.e. from injection at 2 GeV (kinetic energy) to flat top at 26 GeV (total energy). In this paper, detailed numerical simulations are presented, carried out with a combination of sophisticated beam dynamics and beam-matter interaction codes, assessing the behaviour of stopped or scattered particles. The results of these numerical simulations are compared with the data collected during the routine operation of the PS and its internal dump.
