In an attempt at demonstrating an average field gradient of 31.5 MV/m as per the design accelerating gradient for ILC, a program called S1-Global is in progress as an international research collaboration among KEK, INFN, FNAL, DESY and SLAC. The design of the S1-G cryomodule began at May 2008 by INFN and KEK. The S1-Global cryomodule was designed to contain eight superconducting cavities from FNAL, DESY and KEK, and to be constructed by joining two half-size cryomodules, each 6 m in length. The module containing four cavities from FNAL and DESY was constructed by INFN. Four KEK cavities have been assembled in the 6 m module which KEK fabricated. All major components were transported to KEK from INFN, FNAL and DESY in December 2009. The assembly of the two 6-m cryomodules started from January 2010 in a collaborative work of FNAL, DESY, INFN and KEK. The construction of the S1-G cryomodule will complete in May, and the cool-down of the S1-G cryomodule is scheduled from June 2010 at the KEK-STF. In this paper, the construction and the cold tests of the S1-Global cryomodule in the worldwide research collaboration will be presented.

The KEKB-factory will be upgraded for 40 times higher lumnosity (SuperKEKB). The injector linac is required to increase the beam intensities (e-:1nC -> 5nC, e-:1nC -> 4nC) and reduce the emittances (e-:300 -> 20 um, e+: 2100 -> 10 um ) for the SuperKEKB. A photo-cathode RF gun will be introduced to generate the high-intensity and low-emittance electron beams. A positron damping ring will be constructed to reduce the emittance. A new matching device (a flux concentrator or a superconducing magnet) and an L-band capture section will be introduced to increase the positron intensity. Beam line layout down to the damping ring will be rearranged to have sufficient beam acceptance considering the positron emitttance. This paper describes details of the upgrade scheme of the injector linac.
