  As is widely recognized, fourth generation Light Sources are based on FELs driven by Linacs. Soft and hard X-ray FEL facilities are presently operational at several laboratories, SLAC (LCLS), Spring-8 (SACLA), Elettra-Sincrotrone Trieste (FERMI), DESY (FLASH), or are in the construction phase, PSI (SwissFEL), PAL (PAL-XFEL), DESY (European X-FEL), SLAC (LCLS II), or are newly proposed in many laboratories. Most of the above mentioned facilities use NC S-band (3 GHz) or C-band (6 GHz) linacs for generating a multi-GeV low emittance beam. The use of the C-band increases the linac operating gradients, with an overall reduction of the machine length and cost. These advantages, however, can be further enhanced by using X-band (12 GHz) linacs that operate with gradients twice that given by C-band technology. With the low bunch charge option, currently considered for future X-ray FELs, X-band technology offers a low cost and compact solution for generating multi-GeV, low emittance bunches. The paper reports the ongoing activities in the framework of a collaboration among several laboratories for the development and validation of X-band technology for FEL based photon sources.

  Without counter measures, ground motion effects would deteriorate the performance of future linear colliders to an unacceptable level. An envisioned new ground motion mitigation method (based on feed-forward control) has the potential to improve the performance and to reduce the system cost compared to other proposed methods. For the experimental verification of this feed-forward scheme, a dedicated measurement setup has been installed at ATF2 at KEK. In this paper, the progress on this experimental verification is described. An important part of the feed-forward scheme could be already demonstrated, namely the prediction of the orbit jitter due to ground motion measurements.

  One compact hard X-ray FEL facility is being planned at SINAP, and X-band high gradient accelerating structure is the most competetive scheme for this plan. X-band accelerating structure is designed to switch between 60MV/m and 80MV/m, and carries out 6GeV and 8GeV by 130 meters linac respectively. In this paper, brief layout of compact XFEL will be introduced, and in particular the prototype design of dedicated X-band acceleration RF system is also presented.

  Tests of Beam-Based Alignment have been performed at FACET, at SLAC in the USA, and at Fermi, at Elettra in Trieste, Italy, with very promising results. Dispersion-Free Steering and Wakefield-free steering have been successfully applied to both machines. In order to make the correction process as automatic as possible, a set of robust tools has been developed, which allowed to span a large set of parameters. These tools and some of the experimental results performed at both machines are presented in this paper.
