Description

We are planning to upgrade the 15MeV electron linear accelerator LEENA as a radiation source in terahertz regime. For the precise beam handling, an old-fashioned control system is now partially updated to the new one based on PC and Linux. Upgrade of other components such as beam monitors, RF low-level system, and terahertz radiation monitoring system are also being planed. Beam commissioning for the generation of terahertz light by Smith-Purcell radiation has started. (author)
