	Funding: This work was performed under the auspices of the U.S Department of Energy by LLNL under contract DE AC52 07NA27344, and by LBNL under contract. DE-AC02-05CH11231. The Neutralized Drift Compression Experiment-II (NDCX-II) will generate ion beam pulses for studies of Warm Dense Matter and heavy-ion-driven Inertial Fusion Energy. The machine will accelerate 20-50 nC of Li+ to 1.2-3 MeV energy, starting from a 10.9-cm alumino-silicate ion source. At the end of the accelerator the ions are focused to a sub-mm spot size onto a thin foil (planar) target. The pulse duration is compressed from ~500 ns at the source to sub-ns at the target following beam transport in a neutralizing plasma. We first describe the injector, accelerator, transport, final focus and diagnostic facilities. We then report on the results of early commissioning studies that characterize beam quality and beam transport, acceleration waveform shaping and beam current evolution. We present WARP simulation results to benchmark against the experimental measurements.

	LBNL is developing design concepts for a multi-beamline soft x-ray FEL array powered by a superconducting linear accelerator, operating with a high bunch repetition rate of approximately one MHz. Electron bunches are distributed from the linac to the array (up to 10) independently configurable FEL beamlines with nominal bunch rates up to 100 kHz in each FEL, and with even pulse spacing. This distribution to the different FELs is made by the beam spreader for which the design has to relative compact while not significantly perturbing the quality of the electron beam and subsequent performance of the FELs. We report on our conceptual design for the spreader. The spreader lattice has two distinct parts, namely the beam take-off section and the FEL fan-out distributions section. Each section is achromatic and isochronous. The effect of coherent synchrotron radiation and micro-bunching has been studied when passing through the spreader and simulations show no significant deterioration in the beam quality.
