The ALBA Linac is a turn-key system able to produce 4 nC electron beams at 100 MeV beams with a normalized emittance below 30 mm*mrad. Beam position stability below 0.1 mm is measured using new BPM electronics. Thorough analysis are carried out to measure the beam emittance, energy and energy spread. This paper discusses the measurement techniques, analysis method, and results obtained during the Linac commissioning.

The ALBA booster is a 100 MeV-3 GeV ramping synchrotron, with large circumference of 249.6 m and low emittance of 9nm*rad, cycling at 3 Hz. The lattice consists of a 4-fold symmetric modified FODO lattice with defocusing gradient dipoles. Magnetic measurements on all magnets have been performed: the studies and lattice settings to recover the design optics preserving good machine performances, such as the lattice flexibility, the low beta functions and large dynamic aperture at high chromaticities, are presented.

A turn key 100 MeV linac was provided by THALES Communications in order to inject electrons into the booster synchrotron of ALBA*. The linac was commissioned in October 2008. This paper will remind the main features of the linac** and will give results obtained during the commissioning tests. The energy and emittance measurements have been done on the transfer line concieved and realized by CELLS. Specified and measured beam parameters will be compared to show the performance of the entire system.
