Beam commissioning of the J-PARC MR has been going on from May 2008. The beam was one bunch of 4·10¹¹ protons, nearly one hundredth of the design value. Here describe performances of the beam diagnostic devices: DCCT's, BPM's, BLM's, profile monitors and tune meters. Diagnostic design for the design intensity will be also included.

Proton beam extinction, defined as a ratio of the residual and the pulse beam intensity, should be less than 10^-9, which is one of the key requirements to realize the future muon electron conversion experiment (COMET) proposed at J-PARC. Measurement of the pulse timing structure with enough sensitivity is the first step to achieve the required extinction level. We have developed two methods for the measurements; one by using fast-extracted beam and the other by using slow-resonant-extracted beam. This paper describes the schemes and the results of the measurements*. These measurements would provide important information on the beam pulse structure to understand not only for MR beam but also the whole accelelator complex, including LINAC and booster RCS.
