Abstract The Advanced Superconducting Test Accelerator (ASTA) is in the early stage of commissioning. The Front-End consists of a 1.5 cell normal conducting RF Gun resonating at 1.3 GHz with a gradient of up to 40 MV/m, a cesium telluride cathode for photoelectron production, a pulsed 264 nm ultra-violet (UV) laser delivery system, and a diagnostic area for measuring the characteristics of the photoelectron beam. We report on the design, construction, and early experience of the ultra-violet (UV) Laser Delivery and Diagnostic Platform and the Photocathode Imaging System.
