Abstract :
We have examined the acceleration efficiency as a function of B-clock step size from 0.1 to 2.0 Gauss/pulse at the HIMAC synchrotron. The result showed good acceleration efficiency with 0.2 Gauss/pulse, even if we haven´t used feedback. The larger width case shows significant loss, suggesting a limitation due to stepwise change of acceleration frequency
