| Abstract |
An ampere class 20 MeV superconducting Energy Recovery Linac (ERL) is presently under commissioning at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for testing of concepts relevant for high-energy coherent electron cooling and electron-ion colliders. The injector subsystems tests and installation were finished in fall 2013. The injector includes: SRF photoelectron gun with 1 MW amplifier, 10W green drive-laser system, multi-alkaline cathode deposition system, cathode transport system, beam instrumentation and control. * The first photo current from ERL SRF gun has been observed in fall 2014 after second attempt. Completion of the ERL returning loop components installation is scheduled for April 2015 following full power ERL commissioning. After ERL commissioning in BLDG912 the ERL will be relocated to RHIC IP2 to be used as low energy RHIC electron cooler.
