  The R&D of C-band accelerating structure has been launched two years ago at Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics, it will be used for the future compact hard X-ray FEL. The 1st C-band traveling-wave accelerating structure is ready for the high power test now. This structure is the preliminary model for the research of the technology of microwave test and tuning, arts and crafts and high power test. This paper presents the process of fabrication, cold test and tuning results.

  The Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) has been in operation for user experiments in decay mode since May 2009. In the meantime various activities to prepare top-up operation at SSRF, including safety analysis and simulation, dedicated instrumentations and interlocks, control software, radiation measurements, injection optimization and top-up operation tests, have been carried out. In this paper, the progress towards top-up operation at SSRF is described together with its achieved performance.

  As a critical development step towards constructing a hard X-ray FEL in China, a soft X-ray FEL test facility (SXFEL) was proposed and will be constructed at the SSRF campus by a joint team of Institute of Tsinghua University and Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics. This test facility, based on an 840MeV electron linear accelerator, aims at generating 9nm FEL radiation with two-stage cascaded HGHG scheme. The project proposal was approved in February 2011 by central government, and the constrction is expected to start in early 2012. This paper describes the preliminary design of this soft X-ray test facility and the R&D progress of the key FEL technologies in the SDUV-FEL test bench.
