FERMI@ELETTRA is a seeded FEL user facility under construction at Sincrotrone Trieste, Italy. It will use the existing normal conducting S-band linac and with the installation of seven accelerating sections received from CERN after the LIL decommissioning, will be operated at 1.2 GeV. After the successful commissioning of the new injector system of ELETTRA, the linac has been disconnected from the storage ring and now is being revised and upgraded with the installation of new important subsystems, i.e., a new photoinjector, bunch compressors, laser heater, additional accelerating structures, etc. Here a description of the upgrade program as well as the ongoing activities on the main parts of the machine are reported and discussed.

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.
