Abstract :
The J-PARC (Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex) is a multi purpose facility with 1 MW class proton beam power. The J-PARC comprises a linac, a 3 GeV rapid-cycling synchrotron (RCS), a 50 GeV main ring synchrotron (MR) and experimental facilities. The energy of the linac is reduced to 181 MeV for the time being, and it will be increased to 400 MeV in the near future. The 3 MeV RFQ, which is a front end of the linac, has been beam commissioned since November 2006, and we continue to work on the rest of the linac such as a 50 MeV DTL and a 181 MeV Separated-type DTL. The results and status of the J-PARC linac beam commissioning are presented.
