The Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) project aims to accelerate and collide electrons and positrons up to 3 TeV center-of-mass energy using a novel two-beam acceleration concept. To prove the feasibility of this technology the CLIC Test Facility CTF3 has been operated during the last years. CALIFES (Concept d’Accélérateur Linéaire pour Faisceau d’Electron Sonde) is an electron linac hosted in the CTF3 complex, which provides a flexible electron beam and the necessary equipment to probe both the two-beam acceleration concept and novel instrumentation to be used in the future CLIC collider. In this paper we describe the CALIFES Linac and its beam characteristics, present recent test results, outline its future program on two-beam module testing and finally discuss about possible future applications as a multi-purpose accelerator technology test facility.

The CLIC Test Facility CTF3 has been built at CERN by the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) International Collaboration, in order to prove the main feasibility issues of the two-beam acceleration technology on which the collider is based. After the successful completion of its initial task, CTF3 is continuing its experimental program in order to give further indications on cost and performance issues, to act as a test bed for the CLIC technology, and to conduct beam experiments aimed at mitigating technological risks. In this paper we discuss the status of the ongoing experiments and present the more recent results, including improvements in beam quality and stability.
