Abstract
Four lumped inductance injection kicker magnets for the J-PARC main ring (MR) produce a kick of 0.1096 T·m with a 1% to 99% rise-time of about 400 nsec. A residual field of about 6% of the flat-top exists at the tail of the pulse due to an impedance mismatching. The residual field is required to be suppressed less than 1% to reduce injection losses. For a higher intensity beam operation, the kicker rise-time of less than 300nsec is required to inject longer beam bunches which reduces a space charge effect. During the long shutdown in FY2013,140Ω resistor and 7nF capacitor were connected to the thyratron to improve the post-pulse shape. In addition, an optimization of a capacitance in the matching circuit was carried out to optimize the waveform. As the result, the rise-time of 195nsec and the residual tail field of 2% were achieved. However, another reflection peak of about 9% is appeared. We plan to compensate the effect of the new peak by using a new small kicker magnet. This paper discusses the detail of the circuit and the beam test results.
