Abstract

The construction of the initial part of the J-PARC linac has been started at KEK for beam tests before moving to the JAERI Tokai campus, where J-PARC facility is finally to be constructed. The RFQ and MEBT (Medium Energy Beam Transport) have already been installed at KEK, and the beam test has been performed successfully. In this paper, the experimental results of the beam tests are presented together with simulation results with a 3D PIC (Particle-In-Cell) code.
