  FLUTE, a new linac-based test facility and THz source is currently being built at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in collaboration with DESY and PSI. It consists of an RF photo gun and a traveling wave linac accelerating electrons to beam energies of ~41 MeV in the charge range from a few pC up to 3 nC. The electron bunch will then be compressed in a magnetic chicane in the range of 1 - 300 fs, depending on the charge, in order to generate coherent THz radiation with high peak power. An overview of the simulation and hardware status is given in this contribution.

  The baseline design of the SwissFEL injector foresees the "PSI Gun 1", a 2.6-cell RF photo-cathode gun operating at S-band frequency, as the electron source. In this paper a new design is presented where a 5.6-cell C-band gun could replace the PSI Gun 1 with no impact on the rest of the injector setup. A conservative maximum gradient of 135 MV/m at the cathode is assumed which drives the electron beam faster into the relativistic regime and therefore allows to tolerate larger charge densities. The presented solution also foresees a coaxial RF coupling from the cathode side in order to place the gun solenoid as near to the photo-cathode as possible, improving the emittance compensation. Astra simulations showed that the transverse beam brightness can be doubled before the first bunch compressor preserving the low transverse emittance value as compared to the current design for the S-band injector configuration of SwissFEL.
