The Compact Energy Recovery Linac (cERL) is a superconducting test accelerator aimed at establishing technologies for the ERL-based future light source. After its construction during 2009 to 2013, the first CW beams of 20 MeV were successfully transported through the recirculation loop in February 2014*. Then, initial tuning of beams and evaluations of beam properties were carried out. From September to December in 2014, we are constructing a Laser Compton Scattering (LCS) source** which aims at demonstrating technology for the future high-flux quasi-monochromatic gamma-ray source. In the next run of the cERL, which begins at the end of January 2015, we plan such works as an increase in the beam current (from 10 uA to 100 uA), commissioning of the LCS source, and sustained tuning of beams for lower emittance. We will report up-to-date results of these developments.

High brightness X-rays via laser-Compton scattering (LCS) of laser photons stored in an optical cavity by a relativistic electron beam is useful for many scientific and industrial applications such as X-ray imaging. The construction of compact Energy Recovery Linac (cERL) is now in progress at KEK to generate low-emittance and high-current electron beams. In order to demonstrate the generation of high brightness LCS X-rays, it is necessary to develop a high average power injection laser and an optical four-mirror ring cavity with two concave mirrors which is used to produce a small spot laser beam inside the cavity. In this presentation, we will show the result of the development of the high average laser system, the LCS X-rays generation, and the X-ray imaging.

  A high-flux photon source from the laser Compton scattering (LCS) by an electron beam in an energy-recovery linac (ERL) is a key technology for a nondestructive assay system to identify nuclear materials. In order to demonstrate accelerator and laser technologies required for a LCS photon generation, a LCS photon source is under construction at the Compact ERL (cERL). The LCS photon source consists of a mode-locked fiber laser and a laser enhancement cavity. Flux monitors and a data aqcuisition system are also under construction. The commissioning of the LCS photon source will be started in February 2015 and LCS photon generation is scheduled in March 2015. The demonstration result of the LCS photon source will be presented in detail.
