Abstract
The Great East Japan earthquake that occurred on March 11, 2011 resulted in devastating damages to J-PARC. Although damages to the superconducting magnet system for the J-PARC neutrino beam line appeared to be relatively small, a long recovery procedure was required to resume the operation. Except for this long shutdown period, the system has been operated stably ensuring good accumulation of the physics data. The paper reports on the operation status including the damages by the earthquake and its recovery process. Repair of the insufficient cooling of steering corrector coils, which was present prior to the earthquake, was also performed during the recovery process. The paper also reports on the repair.
