Abstract
As one approaches the intensity upgrade of the KEK-12GeV-PS, the beam loss at the beginning of acceleration should be removed. The loss observed around 80 ms after the beginning of acceleration results from the horizontal head-tail instability. The instability occurs due to a large change in the chromaticity produced by the sextupole field induced in the beam-pipe of the dipole magnets. The horizontal chromaticity moves into a positive region just around 80 ms after the beginning of acceleration. The longitudinal modes 0, 1 and 2 have been observed
