  KEK injector linac has delivered electrons and positrons for particle physics and photon science experiments for more than 30 years. It is being upgraded for the SuperKEKB project, which aims at a 40-fold increase in luminosity over the previous project KEKB, in order to increase our understanding of new physics beyond the standard model of elementary particle physics. SuperKEKB asymmetric electron and positron collider with its extremely high luminosity requires a high current, low emittance and low energy spread injection beam from the injector. Electron beams will be generated by a new type of RF gun, that will provide a much higher beam current to correspond to a large stored beam current and a short lifetime in the ring. The positron source is another major challenge that enhances the positron bunch intensity from 1 to 4 nC by increasing the positron capture efficiency, and the positron beam emittance is reduced from 2000 micron to 20 micron in the vertical plane by introducing a damping ring, followed by the bunch compressor and energy compressor. The recent status of the upgrade and beam commissioning is reported.

  PF-AR was constructed as an accumulator ring for TRISTAN, and in the KEKB era it has been revitalized as a 6.5 GeV synchrotron radiation source. The injection energy was 3 GeV and the beam was accelerated to 6.5 GeV prior to the user run. The original beam transport line (BT) from the LINAC to the PF-AR shared its upstream part with the the BT line of KEKB High Energy Ring (HER). The injection-mode change from PF-AR to HER or vice versa needs about 10 minutes for the magnet cycling procedure of the shared part. In SuperKEKB, the upgrade of KEKB, the lifetime of HER is about 10 minutes. The mode-switch operation of the BT is, therefore, not allowed for maintaining the highest luminosity of the SuperKEKB. In order to avoid this problem, a new 6.5 GeV BT line dedicated to PF-AR has been constructed. This also enables the top-up injection for the user run. The commissioning of the new BT line has been completed in this March, and now the first user run has been operated successfully.

  The positron source under investigation is using channeling radiation of multi-GeV electrons in a tungsten crystal. The radiated photons are impinging on the amorphous targets creating e+e pairs. A dipole magnet between the crystal-radiator and the amorphous-converter allows the charged particles to be swept off and only emitted photons to generate e+e pairs in the converter. Granular targets of different thicknesses, made of small tungsten spheres, have been recently investigated as a target-converter. This paper is describing the experimental studies conducted at the KEKB linac with such device. After the description of the experimental set-up and beam parameters, the measurement methods and preliminary results are presented.
