  The new FERMI@Elettra photoinjector is presently undergoing high-power testing and characterization at MAX-Lab in Lund Sweden. This effort is a collaboration between Sincrotrone Trieste, MAX-Lab and UCLA. The 1.6-cell RF gun cavity and the focusing solenoid were successfully designed and built by the Particle Beam Physics Laboratory at UCLA, delivered to Sincrotrone Trieste at the beginning of 2008, and installed in the linac tunnel at MAX-Lab. Use of the MAX-Lab facility will allow the FERMI project to progress significantly with the photoinjector while waiting for the completion of the new linac building extension at Sincrotrone Trieste. We report here on the high-power conditioning of the RF cavity and the first beam tests. Furthermore, a preliminary characterization of the 5 MeV beam will also be presented.

  In the FERMI linac layout the first spectrometer has been located close to the exit of the photoinjector gun at about 5 MeV. The main purpose of this equipment is measuring the energy and energy spread of the beam. Combining the spectrometer with Yag screens and Cerenkov radiators allows the investigation and characterization of eventual deterioration of the longitudinal profile due to the space charge forces and microbunching instabilities. The design specification of the magnet and multi-particle tracking code simulation results are presented in this paper.
