	Funding: This work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract DE-AC52-07NA27344. An X-band multi-bunch test station is being built at LLNL to investigate the science and technology paths required to boost the current mono-energetic gamma-ray (MEGa-Ray) brightness by orders of magnitude. The test station will consist of a 5.5 cell X-band RF photoinjector, single accelerator section, and beam diagnostics. Beam quality must be exceedingly high in order to produce narrow-bandwidth gamma-rays, requiring a robust state of the art photoinjector. The photoinjector will be a high gradient (200 MV/m peak surface field on the cathode) standing wave structure, featuring a dual feed racetrack coupler, elliptical irises, and an optimized first cell length. A solid-state Scandinova modulator will power a single SLAC XL4 11.424 GHz 50 MW klystron. RF distribution will allow for full powering of the photoinjector with the balance of the RF powering a single accelerator section so that the electron parameters can be measured. The status of the facility will be presented including commissioning schedule and first experiment plans. Future experimental programs pertinent to Compton scattering R&D, high gradient structure testing, and light source development will be discussed.

	Funding: This work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under Contract DE-AC52-07NA27344. Nuclear photonics is an emerging field of research requiring new tools, including high spectral brightness, tunable gamma-ray sources; high photon energy, ultrahigh-resolution crystal spectrometers; and novel detectors. This presentation focuses on the precision linac technology required for Compton scattering gamma-ray light sources, and on the optimization of the laser and electron beam pulse format to achieve unprecedented spectral brightness. Within this context, high-gradient X-band technology will be shown to offer optimal performance in a compact package, when used in conjunction with the appropriate pulse format, and photocathode illumination and interaction laser technologies.

	Funding: Work supported by the DOE under Contract DE-AC02-76SF00515 Several linac driven X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFELs) are being developed to provide high brightness photon beams with very short, tunable wavelengths. In this paper, three XFEL configurations are proposed that achieve LCLS-like performance using X-band linac drivers. These linacs are more versatile, efficient and compact than ones using S-band or C-band rf technology. For each of the designs, the overall accelerator layout and the shaping of the bunch longitudinal phase space are described briefly.
