Accelerator

EPICS at SSRF/Shaghai in March.2008, n.kami, KEK

Progress in the Recent 1-year• Linac and RCS

– Proton beam was accelerated successfully to the design values (181 MeV/ Linac, 3 GeV/RCS, respectively).

Linac – on Jan.24.2007 RCS on Oct.31.2007

EPICS at SSRF/Shaghai in March.2008, n.kami, KEK

Progress in the Recent 1-year (Continued)

• Linac : Goal is 181MeVx{30mA,500us,25Hz}– Studies toward high power operation

• {5mA,20us,2.5Hz} in Jan.2007 #1st successful beam• -> Jun.2007: {5mA,50us,25Hz}, {5mA,250us,5Hz} # high duty• -> Jan.2008: {30mA,50us,1Hz} # high beam-current

– Various improvements using beam diagnostics systems• But more studies needed

• RCS : Beam accelerated to the design value, 3GeV– 1 bunch operation: 4.4x10^12 ppb with 25Hz (52.5kW)

• peak current 25mA, bunch width 560ns, for 4 minutes• Beam loss is at injection collimators

– Toward “stable” operation with 20kW output in 2008• Not enough RF power for higher power operation • More spare parts for MR test and future regular operation

EPICS at SSRF/Shaghai in March.2008, n.kami, KEK

Progress in the Recent 1-year (Continued)

• MR (by KEK) : will start beam commissioning in May– Installation of accelerator components are in progress

• Installation is in the final phase• MR members are working very hard

– Off-beam commissioning was started • Powering of magnet power-supplies since Dec.24.2007

– Still … on schedule, but very tight

• MR : beam commissioning plan – May-June.2008: 3GeV DC operation– Dec.-Feb.2009: Accelerate beam to 30 GeV, Beam extraction to HD facility– Apr.-June.2009: Beam extraction to NU facility

Control System

EPICS at SSRF/Shaghai in March.2008, n.kami, KEK

Progress in the Recent 1-year• Infrastructure - CCR (Central Control Room)

– Another temporary(?) Control Room in the RCS building– Two control rooms will be (must be !) merged

EPICS at SSRF/Shaghai in March.2008, n.kami, KEK

Progress in the Recent 1-year (Continued)• Infrastructure - Computers

– CPU Servers : Blade-type servers (IBM Blade Center) • 16 CPU-blades were introduced during Nov.2006-Oct.2007• For software development, operation, simulation, ..• Old servers were replaced by them

– Disk Server : Dedicated storage disk (IBM N3600/NetApp) • User’s operational size is 1TB(program)+7TB(data)• Introduced in Feb.2008, will be in operation very soon

J-PARC Control – So far• Linac and RCS

– The control system(s) has been developed and used successfully • Most of RCS devices are controllable, but partly not yet

• HLA – High Level Application– HLA for Linac and RCS

• developed by commissioning staff using XAL/JCE and SAD• Contributed to beam commissioning successfully

– HLA for MR• Under development using SAD

– More details will be given by Yamamoto-san on Mar.14(Fri)

J-PARC Control - MR• MR

– IOC side • Use Intel-based VME-bus IOC with Linux

– GE Funac VMIVME7807 (Pentium4M, high-performance)– GE Funac VMIVME7700 (Celeron), VMEbus-access Lib.– Sanritz SVA041 (Celeron), for network devices
