The NSLS-II linac is produced by Research Instruments and will be commissioned in the spring of 2012. As part of the procurement, the linac front end consisting of the gun, prebunching cavity, and diagnostics was delivered early to BNL for testing. We designed a short beamline to supplement the Front End diagnostics to characterize the beam. These tests were instrumental in demonstrating the functioning of the gun, pinpointing technical problems at an early project stage and gaining experience with the linac gun by BNL staff prior to commissioning of the full linac. In this report we show the results of the tests, including charge, bunch length, and transverse emittance measurements and compare them with the relevant linac specifications.

A 7-cell PETRA-III cavity is considered to be installed for the commissioning Phase 1 in the NSLS-II storage ring at an average current of 25mA. In this contribution we study transverse and longitudinal coupled-bunch instabilities that may be driven by the higher order modes of the 7-cell PETRA-III cavity. The instability thresholds are calculated with the OASIS tracking code, with parameters of the bare lattice (no damping wigglers and Landau cavities). We study multibunch configurations with arbitrary fill-patterns and discuss the slow head-tail effect at positive chromaticity to increase the transverse instability thresholds.
