  Beam intensity upgrade is ongoing at the J-PARC main ring. The beam instability is controlled by feedback systems in both longitudinal and transverse directions respectively. However, in recent years, microbunch structures have been observed during debunching, inducing electron cloud and transverse beam instability, which has become a problem. It is essential to identify the cause and take countermeasures. A summary of model and measurement comparisons will be reported for the major impedances RF-cavities, FX-septa, and FX-kickers. Of the five septa, two have been subjected to impedance reduction measures. The remaining three septa are of different types, but similar measures are planning.

  IMPACT (Isotope and Muon Production with Advanced Cyclotron and Target Technology) is a proposed upgrade project for the high-intensity proton accelerator facility (HIPA) at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI). As part of IMPACT, a new radioisotope target station, TATTOOS (Targeted Alpha Tumour Therapy and Other Oncological Solutions) will allow to produce promising radionuclides for diagnosis and therapy of cancer in doses sufficient for clinical studies. The proposed TATTOOS beamline and target will be located near the UCN (Ultra Cold Neutron source) target area, branching off from the main UCN beamline. In particular, the 590 MeV proton beamline is intended to operate at a beam intensity of 100 uA (60 kW), requiring a continuous splitting of the main beam via an electrostatic splitter. Beam loss simulations to verify safe operation have been performed and optimised using BDSIM, a Geant4 based tool enabling the simulation of beam transportation through magnets and particle passage through accelerator. In this study, beam profiles, beam transmission and power deposits are generated and studied. Finally, a quantitative description of the beam halo is introduced.

  J-PARC Main Ring (MR) is a synchrotron that accelerates protons up to 30 GeV and supplies them to the Neutrino Experimental Facility and the Hadron Experimental Facility (HEF). Beam extraction from MR to HEF is performed by slow extraction using third-order resonance. In the slow extraction a device called an electrostatic septum (ESS) is used to scrape out the beam, and it is important to reduce the beam loss at the septum electrode of the ESS in order to supply a high-intensity beam. So far, we have achieved a slow extraction efficiency of 99.5% by developing an ESS with a thin septum electrode and tuning the bump orbit to reduce the width of the angular distribution of protons at the ESS. In addition, a collimator is installed downstream of the ESS to absorb particles scattered by the septum electrode, thereby reducing activation of the components downstream. In order to achieve further reduction of the beam loss, we are currently considering to install beam diffusers and/or bent silicon crystals at the upstream of the ESS. In this talk, we will present the current status of the slow extraction devices and future plans to further improve the extraction efficiency.
