An innovative research program is being carried out to experimentally demonstrate a high-brightness, space-charge-dominated elliptic electron beam using a non-axisymmetric permanent magnet focusing system. Results of the fabrication, initial testing and beam imaging of an elliptic electron gun are reported. Good agreement is found between the experimental measurements and simulation.
