Abstract:Final stage amplifiers of the J-PARC Ring rf system have almost the same design for both the RCS and MR, and both use the same tetrode vacuum tubes. Operation of the RCS began in 2007, and of the MR in 2008. Total operation time of the RCS is more than 50,000 hours, and more than 40,000 hours for the MR. In 2018, two tubes at the MR reached their end of life; it was the first such case for the J-PARC Ring rf system, with the exception of a few initial failure. It is known that the long life of the tubes can be… Show more
