Progress of beam power upgrade in J-PARC main ring

In the J-PARC main ring (MR), a project to increase the beam power with higher repetition rates and higher beam intensities is now in progress, aiming to achieve 1.3 MW in the fast extraction (FX) mode and >100 kW in the slow extraction (SX) mode. Beam power has generally been increasing as planned with progress of hardware upgrades and beam dynamics tuning; beam powers of 800 kW (FX) and 80 kW (SX) have been achieved as of December 2024. This paper reports on the recent progress of the beam power upgrade in MR.
