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.

ALICE is an energy recovery accelerator which drives an infrared free electron laser (IR FEL), based at STFC Daresbury Laboratory. Beam dynamics are of primary importance for the operation of the IR FEL, to ensure sufficient peak current with minimal energy spread and transverse emittance. Measurements of beam parameters are presented and compared with particle tracking simulations. Of particular interest in the ALICE machine is the relatively long injection line where space charge and velocity bunching effects can be significant.
