CONSTRUCTION AND COMMISSIONING OF COMPACT-ERL INJECTOR AT KEK

The Compact Energy-Recovery Linac (cERL) is under construction at KEK in order to demonstrate the technologies that are needed for the future 3-GeV ERL project. In April 2013, the 5-MeV injector of the cERL was completed and commissioned. During April to June in 2013, we tuned up the injector and evaluated its beam performance. From July to November in 2013, we are constructing the entire cERL including its return loop.
