	A new HPC simulation suite, intended to aid in both the investigation of novel FEL physics and the design of new FEL facilities, is described. The integrated start-to-end suite, currently under development, incorporates both plasma (VSim) and linac (ELEGANT, ASTRA) accelerator codes, and will include the 3D unaveraged FEL code Puffin to probe novel FEL effects.

	CLARA is a new FEL test facility being developed at STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK. The main motivation for CLARA is to test new FEL schemes that can later be implemented on existing and future short wavelength FELs. Particular focus will be on ultra-short pulse generation, pulse stability, and synchronisation with external sources. The project is now underway and the Front End section (photoinjector and first linac) installation will begin later this year. This paper will discuss the progress with the Front End assembly and also highlighting other topics which are currently receiving significant attention.

	The ALICE (Accelerators and Lasers In Combined Experiments) accelerator at STFC Daresbury Laboratory in the UK was conceived in 2003 and constructed as a short-term Energy Recovery Linac demonstrator to develop the underpinning technology and expertise required for a proposed 600MeV ERL-based FEL facility. In this paper we present an update on the performance and status of ALICE which now operates as a funded IR-FEL user facility. We discuss the challenges of evolving a short-term demonstrator into a stable, reliable user facility and present a summary of the current scientific programme.

TUP025	Studies of Undulator Tapering for the CLARA FEL	412
	I.P.S. Martin, R. Bartolini DLS, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom R. Bartolini JAI, Oxford, United Kingdom D.J. Dunning, N. Thompson STFC/DL/ASTeC, Daresbury, Warrington, Cheshire, United Kingdom
	Undulator tapering is a well-known method for enhancing the performance of free-electron lasers [1]. It works by keeping the resonant wavelength constant, despite variation in the electron beam energy. Both the energy-extraction efficiency and the spectral brightness of the FEL can be improved using this technique. In this paper we present recent studies of undulator tapering for the CLARA FEL in both SASE and seeded modes. The methods used to optimise the taper profile are described, and the properties of the final FEL pulses are compared. [1] N.M. Kroll, P.L. Morton, M.N. Rosenbluth, J.
