  A timing distribution system with femto-second stability has been developed for the RF synchronization of accelerator and the laser synchronization of the pump-probe experiments. The system uses a phase stabilized optical fiber(PSOF) and an active fiber length stabilization. The PSOF has 5 ps/km/degC of the temperature coefficient. The active fiber length stabilization uses the phase detection of the round-trip sinusoidal wave and the fiber stretcher for the compensation of the fiber length. In this paper, we present the test results on a 500 m long signal distribution. The preliminary results of the timing stability are 20 fs at several minutes and 100 fs at four days, respectively.

  Compton scattering provides one of the most promising scheme to obtain polarized positrons for the next generation of e+e colliders. Moreover it is an attractive method to produce monochromatic high energy polarized gammas for nuclear applications and X-rays for compact light sources. In this framework a four-mirror Fabry-Perot cavity has been installed at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF - KEK, Tsukuba, Japan) and will be used to produce an intense flux of polarized gamma rays by Compton scattering. For electrons at the energy of the ATF (1.28GeV) Compton scattering may result in a shorter lifetime due to the limited bucket acceptance. We have implemented the effect of Compton scattering on a 2D tracking code with a Monte-Carlo method. This code has been used to study the longitudinal dynamics of the electron beam at the ATF damping ring, in particular the evolution of the energy spread and the bunch length under Compton scattering. The results obtained are presented and discussed. Possible methods to observe the effect of Compton scattering on the ATF beam are proposed.
