  We report on the recent activity at SPARC, which has successfully been operated in seeded mode. In the framework of the DS4 EUROFEL collaboration, a research work plan aiming at the investigation of seeded and cascaded FEL configurations was implemented. The main goal of the collaboration was to study the amplification and the harmonic generation process of an input seed signal. We describe here the first experimental results, with the observation of harmonics up to the 11th of the fundamental and the operation of the FEL in cascaded mode, driven both by seed generated in crystal and in gas (Ar).

  An X-band Traveling wave Deflector mode cavity (XTD) has been developed at Radiabeam Technologies to perform longitudinal characterization of the sub-picosecond ultra-relativistic electron beams. The device is optimized for the 100 MeV electron beam parameters at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and is scalable to higher energies. The XTD is designed to operate at 11.424 GHz, and features short filling time, femtosecond resolution, and a small footprint. RF design, fabrication and RF validation and tuning will be presented.
