  At the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf near Dresden a quasi-cw low-energy electron linear accelerator based on superconducting radiofrequency technology is operated successfully for more than 10 years. The ELBE accelerator is driving several secondary radiation sources including 2 infrared free electron lasers. A new addition will be a THz facility that aims to make use of super-radiant THz radiation. In its final form the THz facility shall consist of one coherent diffraction radiator and one undulator source which provide high-field THz pulses at unprecedented repetition rates. While the medium term goal is to establish a unique user facility for nonlinear THz science, the THz sources are already used as a test facility for novel diagnostic techniques on quasi-cw electron beams. The progress of the developments is reported and an outlook into future challenges and opportunities is given.

  The ELBE accelerator is a super conduction electron cw machine located at the Helmholtz Center Dresden Rossendorf Germany with 1 mA current, now tested for up to 2 mA. Besides other important diagnostics for setting up the machine for user beam time and further improvement of the machine – a THz source is momentary under commissioning – a EOS measuring station for bunch length measurements is locate right behind the second super conducting Linac. Measuring with a crystal in the vicinity of an up to 2 mA cw beam implies higher beam loss and also higher radiation exposure of the crystal and hence also a safety risk for the UHV conditions of the super conducting cavities in the case of crystal damage. Therefore the EOS measuring principle is adapted to larger measuring distances and also for beam requirements with lower bunch charge at ELBE. A description of the setup, considerations of special boundary conditions and as well results for 13 MHz cw beam operation are presented.
