A polarized SRF photocathode gun is being considered as a high-brightness electron injector for the International Linear Collider (ILC). The conceptual engineering analysis and design of this injector, which is required to deliver a large emittance ratio, is presented. The delivered beam parameters we predict are compared to the required performance after the ILC damping ring. The analysis indicates that it may be possible to save cost by eliminating the damping ring though higher values of the emittance ratio are still to be demonstrated.

  We describe the status of two accelerators that Advanced Energy Systems has recently designed and built, and is presently commissioning. One system will drive the THz FEL at the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society in Berlin, while the other will produce radiation for Homeland Security applications. A key aspect of the required FEL accelerator performance is low longitudinal emittance < 50 keV-psec at 200 pC bunch charge from a thermionic electron source. The other system is compact, robust and efficient since it must be transportable.
