Abstract

J-PARC Main Ring (MR) delivers a slow extracted 30 GeV proton beam to the Hadron Experimental Facility using third-order resonance. One of the critical properties required for the proton beam is the flatness of the time structure of the extracted beam (spill structure). We performed a simple beam simulation of the MR slow beam extraction to investigate the effect of the current ripples of the main magnet power supplies on the beam spill structure. In addition, we investigated in the simulation the effects of the feedback control system on the betatron tune using fast Q magnets and the transverse RF system to improve the spill structure. The simulation qualitatively reproduced the measured spill structures. Now the attempts to optimize their parameters for better spill structure are ongoing.
