  Radiabeam Technologies, in collaboration with UCLA, developed a high gradient normal conducting radio frequency (NCRF) 1.6 cell photoinjector system, termed the Fermi Gun II, for the Sincrotrone Trieste (ST) facility. The RF gun has been already in full operation since mid-2013 as the injector for the ST FEL. We report here the current status of the photoinjector system.

  Radiabeam Technologies recently developed an S-Band normal-conducting Radio-Frequency (NCRF) deflecting cavity for the Pohang Accelerator Laboratory (PAL) in order to perform longitudinal characterization of the sub-picosecond ultra-relativistic electron beams. The device is optimized for the 135 MeV electron beam parameters. The 1m-long PAL deflector is designed to operate at 2.856 GHz and features short filling time and femtosecond resolution. At the end of 2012, we delivered an X-band Traveling wave RF Deflector (XTD) to the ATF facility at Brookhaven National Lab. The device is optimized for the 100 MeV electron beam parameters at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) at Brookhaven National Laboratory, and is scalable to higher energies. The XTD is designed to operate at 11.424 GHz, and features short filling time, femtosecond resolution, and a small footprint. The XTD is currently being assembled at ATF for high-power operation and conditioning results will be reported soon.

  An infrared (IR) free-electron laser (FEL) has been proposed to be built at the Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology (RRCAT). RadiaBeam is currently involved in the design of the RRCAT FEL's injector system. The injector will deliver an electron beam with a variable energy (from 15 up to 40 MeV) and 1.5 nC at 36.6 MHz repetition rate. We show here the beam dynamics of the beam transport through the injector as well as the RF design and mechanical model of the system.
