Ultra-short electron bunch production is attractive for a large number of applications ranging from short wavelength free electron lasers (FEL), THz radiation production, linear colliders and plasma wake field accelerators. SPARC is a test facility able to accelerate high brightness beam from RF guns up to 150 MeV allowing a wide range of beam physics experiments. Those experiments require detailed beam measurements and careful data analysis. In this paper we discuss the techniques currently used in our machine; by combining quadrupoles, RF deflector, spectrometer dipole and reliable data analysis codes, we manage to characterize the 6D phase space and the beam slice properties. We focus on the ongoing studies on the emittance compensation in the velocity bunching regime.

Recently the peak luminosity achieved on the DAΦNE collider has been improved by almost a factor 3 by implementing a novel collision scheme based on large Piwinski angle and Crab-Waist. This encouraging result opened new perspectives for physics research and a new run with the KLOE-2 detector has been scheduled to start by spring 2010. The KLOE-2 installation is a complex operation requiring a careful design effort and a several months long shutdown. The high luminosity interaction region has been deeply revised in order to take into account the effect on the beam caused by the solenoidal field of the experimental detector and to ensure background rejection. The shutdown has been also used to implement several other modifications aimed at improving beam dynamics: the wiggler poles have been displaced from the magnet axis in order to cancel high order terms in the field, the feedback systems have been equipped with stronger power supplies and more efficient kickers and electrodes have been inserted inside the wiggler and the dipole vacuum chambers, in the positron ring, to avoid the e-cloud formation. A low level RF feedback has been added to the cavity control in both rings.

The primary goal of the SPARC project is the commissioning of the SASE FEL operating at 500 nm driven by a 150-200 MeV high brightness photoinjector. Additional experiments are foreseen also in the HHG Seeded configuration at 266, 160 and 114 nm. A second beam line hosting a THz source has been recently commissioned. The recent successful operation of the SPARC injector in the Velocity Bunching (VB) mode has opened new perspectives to conduct advanced beam dynamics experiments with ultra-short electron pulses able to extend the THz spectrum and to drive the FEL in the SASE Single Spike mode. Moreover a new technique called Laser Comb, able to generate a train of short pulses with high repetition rate, as the one required to drive coherent plasma wake field excitation, has been tested in the VB configuration. The energy/density modulation produced by an infrared laser pulse interacting with the electron beam near the cathode has been also investigated. In this paper we report the experimental results obtained so far and the comparison with simulations.

In the frame of the SPARC-X project, the energy of the Photo-Injector SPARC, in operation at INFN-LNF, will be upgraded from 180 to 250 MeV by replacing a low gradient S-band traveling wave accelerating section with two C-band units, designed and developed at LNF. The new system will consist of a 50 MW klystron, supplied by a pulsed modulator, to feed the high gradient C-band structures through a RF pulse compressor. This paper deals with the design of the full system, the C-band R&D activity and study of the related beam dynamics.
