	The Extreme Light Infrastructure - Nuclear Physics (ELI-NP) facility will provide a high intensity laser and a very intense gamma beam which will be used in a broad range of experiments. The gamma beam is obtained through incoherent Compton back-scattering of a laser light off a high brightness electron beam provided by a 700MeV warm LINAC. Electrons are accelerated in trains with up to 32 bunches, each one separated by 16ns. In the laser-electron interaction region, every bunch needs to be monitored with a resolution below 1μm RMS. To achieve this performance, a low-Q cavity beam position monitor will be used in combination with a dedicated data acquisition system able to perform bunch-by-bunch beam position measurements with sub-μm resolution. Using fast A/D converters and specific digital filtering, the readout system proposes an alternative measurement concept. The requirements of the system, its design and the results from the simulations will be presented.

	The ELI-NP C-Band structures are 1.8 m long travelling wave accelerating structures, quasi-constant gradient, with a field phase advance per cell of 2pi/3. They operate at a repetition rate of 100 Hz and, because of the multi-bunch operation, they have been designed with a dipole HOM damping system to avoid beam break-up (BBU). The structures have symmetric input and output couplers and integrate, in each cell, a waveguide HOM damping systems with silicon carbide RF absorbers. An optimization of the electromagnetic and mechanical design has been done to simplify the fabrication and to reduce their cost. After the first full scale prototype successfully tested at the nominal gradient of 33 MV/m, the production of the twelve structures started. In the paper we illustrate the main design criteria, the realization process and the high power test results.

	The new Gamma Beam System (GBS) under construction in Magurele (RO) by the consortium EuroGammas led by INFN, as part of the ELI-NP project, can provide gamma rays that open new possibilities for nuclear photonics and nuclear physics. In the ELI-GBS, gamma rays are produced by means of Compton back-scattering to get mono-chromaticity (0,1% bandwidth), a high flux (10¹³ photon/s the highest in the world), tunable directions and energies up to 19 MeV. Such gamma beam characteristic is obtained when a high-intensity laser collides a high-brightness electron-beam with energies up to 720 MeV. In order to increase the gamma beam flux, the electron beam operates at a repetition rate of 100 Hz in a multi-bunch mode: trains of 32 bunches, 16 ns apart, interact with the laser pulse recirculated 32 times through the interaction point. The EPICS Control System collects data from all sub-systems, constantly monitoring to ensure the safety of the ELI-GBS facility. This paper describes all the aspects of the ELI-GBS turn-key Control System, such as hardware integration, micro-bunches diagnostics, high level applications, the data network and the pico-second timing system.
