	A new laser-based alignment system is under development in order to precisely align accelerator components along an ideal straight line at the 600-m-long KEKB injector linac. A well-known sequential three-point method with Fresnel lenses and a CCD camera is revisited in a preliminary design of the new alignment system. The new alignment system is strongly required in order to stably accelerate high-brightness electron and positron beams with high bunch charges and also to keep the beam stability with higher quality towards the Super B-factory at KEK. A new laser optics has been developed and the laser propagation characteristics has been systematically investigated at a 200-m-long straight section at atmospheric pressure. In this report, the preliminary experimental results are reported along with the basic design of the new laser-based alignment system.

A new laser-based alignment system is under development in order to precisely align accelerator components along an ideal straight line at the 600-m-long KEKB injector linac. A well-known sequential three-point method with Fresnel lenses and a CCD camera is revisited in a preliminary design of the new alignment system. The new alignment system is strongly required in order to stably accelerate high-brightness electron and positron beams with high bunch charges and also to keep the beam stability with higher quality towards the Super B-factory at KEK. A new laser optics has been developed and the laser propagation characteristics has been systematically investigated at a 200-m-long straight section at atmospheric pressure. In this report, the preliminary experimental results are reported along with the basic design of the new laser-based alignment system.
