  Coupling resonance was observed at operating points near to Qx-Qy=1. Two-dimensional profile of a beam at its equilibrium was measured, and it was found that the beam was inclined in transverse when the operating point is near to the resonance condition. We will present the detail of the measurement and the results.

  Main lattice of the ion storage and cooler ring, S-LSR is composed of 6 dipole and 12 quadrupole magnets. The maximum magnetic field, the radius of curvature and gap height are 0.95 T, 1050 mm and 70 mm, respectively. The field measurement of the dipole magnets has been completed with use of Hall-probe position controlled by driving mechanism composed of stepping motors and ball-screws. In order to cancel out the momentum dispersion, the radial electric field is superposed with the magnetic field. The radial electric field is applied by the electrodes installed into the vacuum vessel set inside the rather limited gap of the dipole magnet. Good field quality is to be realized with use of intermediate electrodes. In the present paper, the results of the magnetic field measurements are presented together with the design of the superposed electric field.

  S-LSR is an ion accumulation and cooler ring with the circumference and maximum magnetic rigidity of 22.589 m and 1.0T.m, respectively. Electron beam cooling will be applied for laser-produced hot ion beam after phase rotation. Electron cooler for S-LSR is now under construction and the beam simulation is also going on. Laser cooling of Mg ion with low energy (35 keV) is also planned in 3-dimensional way with use of Synchro-Betatron coupling.so as to realize ultra cold beam. Cancellation of shear force due to orbit-length difference in the dipole section is to be studied with use of overlapping of the radial electric field inversely proportional to the curvature radius with the uniform vertical magnetic field. Possible experiments to approach to ultra-cold beam is also to be studied by computer simulation

  The KEK electrostatic ring is used for investigations of molecular, bimolecular and DNA ions. The electron target installed in this ring has same construction as usual electron cooler. The interaction of stored ions with the electrons increases the ion lifetime at electron cooling caused by a suppression of the ion scattering on the residual gas atoms. The proton lifetime of 2 s was increased in the experiments by factor 2 at the electron cooling with the electron beam current of 0.2 mA, the proton energy of 20 keV and the residual gas pressure of 0.04 nTorr. However the electron-ion interaction can decrease the ion lifetime caused by an excitation of the transverse instability produced by an intensive electron beam. So in the KEK electrostatic ring the proton lifetime is reduced to 1.7 s at detuning of electron acceleration voltage from nominal cooler value on 0.4 V. The simulation of electron cooling and transverse instability of the light and DNA ions are discussed in this report.

  S-LSR is a low energy ion storage/cooler ring. It has 12-quadrupole magnets (QM) with a bore radius of 70 mm and a maximum field gradient of 5 T/m. To suppress and control a magnetic flux in a fringing field of a bending magnet (BM), a field clamp with a thickness of 25 mm was installed in between BM and QM. The distance between the field clamp and QM is 80 mm. 3D calculation represented that the QM field is strongly influenced by the field clamp. Therefore, QMs were designed and optimized in considering the influence of the field clamp. Magnetic field measurements were performed by means of a Hall probe and a long search coil. A magnet field measurement by a Hall probe was carried out together with the field clamp and BM for S-LSR. For 12-quadrupole magnets, the measurement by the long search coil which moves in horizontal direction was carried out. The results for each measurements will be discussed.

  In the HIMAC synchrotron, the electron cooling experiments have been carried out since 2000 in order to develop new technologies in heavy-ion therapy and related research. Among of them, especially, the cool-stacking method has been studied to increase the intensity of heavy ions such as Fe and Ni in order to study the risk estimation of the radiation exposure in space. The simulation was carried out in order to optimize the stacking intensity under various the injection periods. In addition, the beam heating by the RF-KO and the clearing the secondary ion in the cooler were applied to avoid the instability occurred when the beam density became high. We will report the experiment results.

  A compact ion cooler ring, S-LSR is under construction in Kyoto University. The circumference is 22.557 m and the maximum magnetic rigidity is 1 Tm. One of the important roles of S-LSR is a test bed to examine the lowest temperature limit of the ion beams using cooling techniques. The ultimate case is a crystalline one. The ring optics of S-LSR has a high super periodicity and a low phase advance to reduce the beam heating from the lattice structure. S-LSR has an electron beam cooling device and a laser cooling system for Mg. The simulation results show the possible limit of the ion beam temperature and the dependence on the operating betatron tunes.

  At HIMAC synchrotron, two kinds of slow-extraction method have been developed and utilized: third-order resonant slow-extraction and that with RF-knockout, not only for ion therapy but also for physics and biological experiments. Thus, the improvements of the extracted beam quality have also been carried out in both methods. One of the improvements is the global spill control. The global spill is improved owing to analytical approach in both methods. Cooperating with the feedback system, the flat spill is easily obtained without gain control of the feedback during the extraction. On the other hand, the effect of longitudinal motion for the bunched beam was studied to suppress the frequency component of the synchrotron oscillation in the spill ripple. Further, the transport of the extracted beam is readjusted for controlling the beam size. In this paper, recent improvement of slow-extraction at HIMAC is presented.

  Since 1994, the clinical trial at HIMAC has been successfully being progressed and more than 1,700 patients have treated with carbon ions. Owing to the good result of HIMAC, several medical groups in Japan have strongly required the carbon therapy facility. Based on the development of accelerator and the irradiation technologies for 10 years, therefore, we started to design a carbon therapy facility in Japan. The accelerator complex for the facility consists of two ECR ion sources with permanent magnets, an injector linac cascade (RFQ+IH) with the energy of 4 MeV/n, a synchrotron ring with the maximum energy of 400 MeV/n and beam delivery system for three treatment rooms. The R&D for the new facility has been already approved and will be started from April 2004. We will describe the conceptual design of the new facility.

  In the multiturn injection method at the HIMAC synchrotron, a collapsing speed of the bump orbit was decreased from 200 to 350 microseconds in order to obtain higher intensity beam. The injection line was readjusted to satisfy the optimum condition of multiturn injection method. Furthermore, COD correction and bump-orbit optimization were carried out. On the other hand, in order to prevent the resonance by tune shift and to keep the beam intensity constant, tune survey was carried out. While vertical tune is adjusted, we propose that the method to reduce beam loss after injection by expanding vertical beam size by means of the RF-knockout. This paper describes the improvement of injection at HIMAC synchrotron.

  Tumor therapy using Heavy Ion Medical Accelerator in Chiba (HIMAC) has been made over ten years at National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS). Due to the successful clinical results, the project on developing compact medical accelerators for the tumor therapy has been started. To design these compact facilities, the size of a linac as well as the construction and operation costs is important. To satisfy these requirements, we propose Alternating-Phase-Focused (APF) linac using an Interdigital H-mode cavity. Since the axial and radial focusing of beam is made just with the acceleration rf field, no additional focusing elements is needed for the APF linac. This feature would make the costs lower than those of conventional linacs. The practical design of the APF linac will be presented.
