Stability analysis using EMTP for JHF systems
The Stability analysis for JHF (Japan Hadron Facility) synchrotron has been performed by using a code for the stability analysis, EMTP(Electronic Magnetic Transient Program). We have examined two cases; a MA (Magnetic Alloy) loaded cavity and ordinary ferrite one. The MA loaded cavity has low Q value and does not require the tuning system for a frequency sweep. The result shows that the MA loaded cavity has larger stable area than the ordinary ferrite loaded cavity. The JHF RF system using the MA loaded cavity can be operated stably. Another simulation has been performed with a code, MC(Micro Cap). The results were consistent with the EMTP analysis.

THE CHARACTERISTICS OF DIFFERENT MAGNETIC MATERIAL FOR RF CAVITY UNDER PERPENDICULAR MAGNETIZATION
In recent years, a technology of perpendicular magnetization for ferrite loaded cavities is developed. Yttrium Garnet ferrite is generally used for that case with higher frequency range from 30-60 MHz. An attempt is taken to measure the characteristics of different new materials such as FINEMET,METGLAS and NiZn ferrite under the condition of perpendicular magnetization. The results are summarized in this paper.

EVALUATION OF MAGNETIC ALLOYS FOR JHF RF CAVITY
A new type of rf accelerating cavity using a high permeability magnetic alloy (MA) has been developed for the high intensity JHF proton synchrotrons. Compared with ordinary ferrites, the MA cores are very stable at high rf magnetic field and thus very high accelerating gradient (=accelerating voltage per cavity length) is available. We have measured several magnetic alloys in order to find a proper material for the cavity. In this paper, the test results are summarized and the evaluation of these materials is presented.

BEAM LOADING EFFECTS IN JHF SYNCHROTRON
Beam loading effects on the rf system of JHF proton synchrotrons have been investigated by both computer simulation and experiment using a low energy electron beam. From the simulation results, it is found that even under the heavy beam loading the beam acceleration becomes stable if applying the beam loading compensation, and the compensation experiment is succeeded on proto-type Magnetic Alloy loaded cavity.

A New type of RF cavity for high intensity proton synchrotron using high permeability magnetic alloy
A new type of rf accelerating cavity using a high-permeability magnetic alloy (MA) core is proposed for a highintensity hadron synchrotron. The prototype of a single-gap high gradient cavity whose total length is only 40cm is under development and a maximum rf voltage of 20kV has been obtained so far.

RF SYSTEMS FOR JHF SYNCHROTRONS
Based on the measurements of the magnetic cores and R&D works, MA(Magnetic Alloy)-loaded cavity will be adopted for the RF cavity of JHF 50 GeV Main Ring and 3 GeV Booster. Because of high stability at large RF amplitude, high gradient of acceleration voltage (>50 kV/m) is available. By a test cavity, 2.5 kV/core has been already achieved in the CW operation using one MA core of 2.5 cm thickness. For the pulse operation, 5.5 kV/core has been obtained. Another advantage is that the system does not require the tuning system because of the cavity band width is wide enough to cover the RF frequency. A stability analysis shows that the RF system without the tuning loop has wider stable region than high Q cavity system with the loop. A multi-particle simulation shows that the RF system is also stable for the periodic transient and the RF bucket distortion. However, the distortion should be corrected when the Q value of the cavity is low (Q<2).

Development of a Superconducting Cavity for the High Intensity Proton Linac in JAERI
The R&D work of a superconducting (SC) cavity for the high intensity proton linac in JAERI has been started in collaboration with KEK. The RF field calculation and the structural analyses of the cavity have been made for the design in the proton energy range between 100 and 1500 MeV. The results indicate the feasibility of the SC proton linac, while more optimization is required. A vertical test stand with a cryostat, a clean room and a water rinsing system has been constructed. We present the preliminary cavity design and the overview of the test stand.

A Relativistic Mean-Field Model with Density-Dependent Meson-Nucleon Couplings
Within the relativistic mean-field approach, we extend the Miyazaki model, where the NN$\sigma$ and NN$\omega$ interactions are modified to suppress the couplings between positive- and negative-energy states of a nucleon in matter. Assuming appropriate density-dependence of the meson-nucleon couplings, we study nuclear matter and finite nuclei. The model can reproduce the observed properties of $^{16}$O and $^{40}$Ca well. We also examine if the model is natural.

The first measurement of low-loss 9-cell cavity in a cryomodule at stf
We are constructing Superconducting RF Test Facility (STF) at KEK for the R&D of ILC accelerator. In the beginning of year 2008, we installed one high-gradient Low-Loss (LL) 9-cell cavity into a cryomodule (CM) at STF. We assembled the cavity with an input-coupler and peripherals in a clean room and the cavity package was dressed with thermal shields to be installed in a CM. At the room-temperature, we performed the processing of input-coupler up to the RF power of 350 kW. At the temperatures of 2 K, RF power was supplied from a klystron to the cavity. The lorentz force detuning of cavity was measured and the performance of the cavity packeage was tested. This article presents the results of the first test of the LL 9-cell cavity at 2 K in a CM.

A microscopic understanding of the structure functions of finite nuclei
Abstract A number of relatively successful quark model descriptions of nuclear matter have recently been developed, based on a mean-field description of non-overlapping nucleon bags bound by the self-consistent exchange of scalar (σ) and vector (ω) mesons. The meson fields modify the internal quark motion in the nucleon bag in medium and this induces a saturation mechanism for nuclear matter. The model gives a nuclear compressibility around 220 MeV and provides a rather satisfactory interpretation of nuclear matter properties. Furthermore, it has recently been shown that the twist-2 valence quark distributions of the free nucleon calculated in the MIT bag model are in reasonable agreement with world data. By using a local density approximation we combine these developments to microscopically investigate the structure functions of finite nuclei. The effect of nuclear shadowing and antishadowing is taken into account phenomenologically. The model can quantitatively reproduce the existing experimental data - the so-called European Muon Collaboration (EMC) effect. We show that the quark degrees of freedom in nuclei and the final state interaction between the debris of the struck nucleon and the residual nucleus both play important roles in the nuclear structure functions. Thus the conventional treatment based on nucleon binding within the impulse approximation is quantitatively unreliable. We also study the effects of the self-coupling terms of the σ field and nucleon-nucleon correlations on some nuclear matter properties and the nuclear structure functions.
