Ring

• Beam energy 3 50 GeV (G 7.5 97.5)
• Design working point nx 22.34 ny 20.27
• Many imperfection resonances
• Strong intrinsic resonances
• No space for full snake installation

Spin tracking without partial snakes

• Spin tracking of single particle at the nominal
  tune of the lattice.
• e 10p mm.mrad. No snakes.
• The polarization is lost at the resonances
  located at Gg 3N ny

Main Ring Partial Snake

• AGS type of cold snake
• magnetic field strength 3.4 Tesla
• snake strength 30 (540 spin rotation angle) at
  injection and gets weaker at higher energy
  according to

Effect of Snake magnetic field on orbital motion

• horizontal orbital offset
• focusing field in both planes
• both effects become weaker
• at higher energy

13
Matching snakes to the lattice

• Because of the strong focusing of the snakes in
  both planes they produce a substantial
  perturbation on the optics of the lattice at low
  energy especially at injection.
• Can be solved by using correcting quadrupoles at
  the entrance and exit of each snake to compensate
  the distortion as demonstrated in the AGS.
• Due to the constraint of limited space in MR we
  present a solution using existing quadrupoles in
  MR QDTQFPQFT and QFS. Instead of building new
  quadrupoles this solution only needs additional
  power supplies for these 4 magnets

Betatron tune

• No stable lattice found with MAD with both
  horizontal and vertical tune close to integer at
  injection. Real machine is probably stable (as in
  AGS) but tune swing is also possible.
• The spin depolarization resonances in MR at low
  energy are very weak and the amount of
  depolarization is negligible for a 10 mm-mrad
  beam. This allows one to ramp the two betatron
  tunes to (22.12 20.96).

Conclusion

• Possible to accelerate polarized protons of 10p
  mm-mrad in the J-PARC Main Ring using two 30
  partial snakes of AGS type.
• The perturbation on the MR optics from snakes is
  significant at low energy. This can be minimized
  by using a correcting quadrupole doublet each at
  the entrance and exit of each snake.
• Tracking with the code Spink using synthetic
  snakes with variable strength and a static
  lattice shows good polarization survival.
