  After a decade of successful operation at KEKB a new electron/positron collider, SuperKEKB, is being constructed to commission within FY2014. It aims at a luminosity of 8 x 1035 /s.cm2, 40-times higher than that of KEKB, in order to study the flavor physics of elementary particles further, by mainly squeezing the beams at the collision point. The injector linac should provide high-intensity and low-emittance beams of 7-GeV electron and 4-GeV positron by newly installing a RF-gun, a flux concentrator, and a damping ring with careful emittance and energy management. It also have to perform simultaneous top-up injections into four storage rings by pulse-to-pulse beam modulations not to interfare between three facilities of SuperKEKB, Photon Factory and PF-AR. This paper describes the injector design decisions and present status of the construction.

  The 35-MeV Compact Energy Recovery Linac (the Compact ERL or cERL) is under construction at the High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (KEK) in Japan. With the Compact ERL, we aim at establishing cutting-edge technologies for the GeV-class ERL-based synchrotron light source. To install the accelerator components of the cERL, we have constructed a shielding room having an area of about 60 m x 20 m. We have then installed a 500-kV DC photocathode gun, a 5-MV superconducting (SC) cryomodule for the injector, a 30-MV SC cryomodule for the main linac, and some of the other components. High-power test on the main SC cryomodule is underway in December, 2012. High-power or high-voltage tests on the injector cryomodule and on the DC gun are planned during January to March, 2013. An injector of the Compact ERL will be commissioned in April, 2013. We report the newest status of its construction.

  In the cERL injector cryomodule, electron beams of 10 mA are accelerated from the beam energy of 500 keV to 5 MeV. A three 2-cell cavity system was chosen for the cERL injector. Each cavity is driven by two input couplers to reduce a required RF power handling capacity and also to compensate a coupler kick. In the cERL injector cryomodule, critical hardware components are not superconducting cavities but RF input couplers operating in CW mode. Six input couplers for the installation in the cryomodule were fabricated, and three pairs of input couplers were carefully conditioned. Costruction status, cool-down tests and high power RF test results on injector cryomodule for compact-ERL at KEK will be discussed in this paper.

  A low level RF (LLRF) design is being currently developed within the compact Energy Recover Linac (cERL) at KEK. One challenging task is to achieve the high amplitude and high phase stability required by the accelerating fields of up to 0.1% and 0.1°, respectively. To improve the performance of the LLRF system, a gain scanning experiment for determining the optimal controller gain was carried out on the cERL. Furthermore, as a substitute for the traditional PI controller, a more robust H∞-based multiple input multiple output (MIMO) controller was realized. This controller requires more detailed system information (transfer function or state equation), which can be acquired by using modern system identification methods. In this paper, we describe the current status of these experiments on the cERL.
