This paper reports details of an induction accelerating cavity employed for induction synchrotron POP experiments [*] using the KEK 12GeV PS. This cavity is the first induction cavity in the history of accelerator that is used in a circular ring. We focus our attention on crucial aspects distinguished from well-know properties of RF cavity. The single cavity is capable of generating an acceleration voltage of 2.5kV with a pulse width of 250ns, which is operated at a repetition rate in the range of 667kHz - 882kHz. The cavity is driven by its own pulse modulator through a 25m long transmission cable of 125W, the end of which is connected with a matching resistance so as to minimize reflection in a wide range of frequency. Accelerating field characteristics are discussed and matching features of the cavity as a one-to-one transformer are presented. A longitudinal and transverse coupling impedance have been measured using a net-work analyzer.

| The high intensity beam accelerator complex itself requires the significant progress of design study and hardware R&D. Operational beam intensity should be limited by the beam loss and activation level of the equipment. Once the beam loss exceeds a criterion at outer environment, beam intensity has to be decreased to prevent the further activation. In order to investigate loss mechanism and suppress the beam loss, a beam loss monitor system have been developed for the J-PARC linac, 3 GeV RCS and 50GeV MR. The system will be essential component for beam commissioning, tuning and machine protection in high intensity beam accelerators. The loss monitor system is composed of scintillator, argon-methane/3He gas filled proportional counter and air filled coaxial cable ionization chamber, which detect g-ray, neutron and charged particles induced by lost particle. It is necessary to measure wide dynamic range of loss intensity for various beam energies. To prevent the activation and heat load by intense beam loss, fast time response of loss signals is required. In this paper, construction and application of loss monitor system are described in detail. Preliminary result of demonstration in the KEK-PS and calibration with cobalt 60 g-ray radiation source are also discussed. |
