  The high charge PHIN photo-injector was developed within the frame of the European CARE program to provide an alternative to the drive beam thermionic gun in CTF3 (CLIC Test Facility) at CERN. In PHIN 1908 bunches are delivered with bunch spacing of 1.5 GHz and 2.33 nC charge per bunch. Furthermore the drive beam generated by CTF3 requires several fast 180 deg phase-shifts with respect to the 1.5 GHz bunch repetition frequency in order to allow the beam combination scheme developed at CTF3. A total of 8 sub-trains, each 140 ns long and shifted in phase with respect to each other, have to be produced with very high phase and amplitude stability. A novel fiber modulator based phase-switching technique developed on the laser system provides this phase-shift between two consecutive pulses much faster and cleaner than the base line scheme, where a thermionic electron gun and sub-harmonic bunching are used. The paper describes the fiber-based switching system and the measurements verifying the scheme. Stability measurements are presented for the phase-coded system. The paper also discusses the latest 8nC charge production and cathode life-time studies on Cs2Te.

  The SuperB project aims at the construction of a very high luminosity (1036 cm-2 s−1) asymmetric electron-positron collider. Due to its large beam current (~2 A) high energy (~7 GeV) and low vertical emittance (less than 10-11 m) the facility looks very attractive as an x-ray synchrotron radiation source, and therefore few beam lines are also foreseen. Possible locations are the campus of the University of Rome Tor Vergata or near another Italian INFN laboratory site. This paper presents and describes the status of the preliminary design of the civil infrastructure layout and related site issues.

  The SuperB collider project has been recently approved by the Italian Government as part of the National Research Plan. SuperB is a high luminosity (1036 cm-2 s-1) asymmetric e+e collider at the Y(4S) energy. The design is based on a “large Piwinski angle and Crab Waist” scheme already successfully tested at the DAΦNE Phi-Factory in Frascati, Italy. The project combines the challenges of high luminosity colliders and state-of-the-art synchrotron light sources, with two beams (e+ at 6.7 and e- at 4.2 GeV) with extremely low emittances and small beam sizes at the Interaction Point. As unique features, the electron beam will be longitudinally polarized at the IP and the rings will be able to ramp down to collide at the tau/charm energy threshold with one tenth the luminosity. The relatively low beam currents (about 2 A) will allow for low running (power) costs compared to similar machines. The insertion of beam lines for synchrotron radiation users is the latest feature included in the design. The lattice has been recently modified to accommodate insertion devices for X-rays production. A status of the project and a description of R&D in progress will be presented.
