  EMMA (Electron Model for Many Applications), the world’s first Non-Scaling Fixed Field Alternating Gradient (NS-FFAG) accelerator is presently in operation at Daresbury Laboratory. The LLRF system is required to synchronize with ALICE (Accelerators and Lasers in Combined Experiments) its injector, which operates at 1.3GHz, and to produce an offset frequency of (+1.5 MHz to -4 MHz) to probe the longitudinal beam dynamics and to also maintain the phase and amplitude of the 19 copper RF cavities of the EMMA machine. The design, commissioning and results of the EMMA RF system is presented.

The ALICE accelerator, the first energy recovery machine in Europe, has recently demonstrated lasing of an infra-red free electron laser (IR-FEL). The current status of the machine and recent developments are described. These include: lasing of the IR-FEL, a programme of powerful coherent terahertz radiation research, electro-optic diagnostic techniques, development of high precision timing and distribution system, implementation of digital low level RF control. ALICE also serves as an injector for the EMMA non-scaling FFAG machine.
