The Versatile Electron Linear Accelerator (VELA) is a facility designed to provide a high quality electron beam for accelerator systems development, as well as industrial and scientific applications. Currently, the RF gun can deliver short (of order a few ps) bunches with charge in excess of 250 pC at up to 5.0 MeV/c beam momentum. Measurement of the beam emittance and optics in the section immediately following the gun is a key step in tuning both the gun and the downstream beamlines for optimum beam quality. We report the results of measurements (taking account of coupling and space charge) indicating normalised emittances of order 0.5 μm at low bunch charge.

Recent developments on the VELA (Versatile Electron Linear Accelerator) RF photo-injector at Daresbury Laboratory are presented. These are three-fold; commissioning/installation, characterising and providing beam to users. Measurements for characterising the dark current (DC), 4-D transverse emittance, lattice functions and photoinjector stability are presented. User beam set ups to provide beam for electron diffraction and Cavity Beam Position Monitor development are summarised.
