Fermilab is in a collaboration with DESY to provide a cryomodule containing 4-3.9 GHz superconducting RF cavities to be placed in TTF/FLASH. The purpose of this 'Third Harmonic' module is to linearize the nonlinear beam energy-time profile produced by the 1.3 GHz accelerating gradient. The completed module has now been shipped to DESY and is awaiting cold, powered testing and installation into FLASH later this year. We report on experience with fabricating, testing, assembling, and shipping the module and its components with a focus on cavity test results.

Noninvasive bunch duration monitoring has a crucial importance for modern accelerators intended for short wavelength FEL’s, colliders and in some beam dynamics experiments. Monitoring of the bunch compression in the Emittance Exchange Experiment at the A0 Photoinjector was done using a parametric presentation of the bunch duration via Coherent Synchrotron Radiation (CSR) emitted in a dipole magnet and measured with a wide-band quasi-optical Schottky Barrier Detector (SBD). The monitoring resulted in a mapping of the quadrupole parameters allowing a determination of the region of highest compression of the bunch in the sub-picosecond range. The obtained data were compared with those measured using the streak camera. A description of the technique and the results of simulations and measurements are presented and discussed in this report.

A transverse to longitudinal emittance exchange experiment is installed at the Fermilab A0 Photoinjector. We report on the completed measurement of emittance exchange transport matrix as well as the ongoing program to directly measure the emittance exchange. Both the transverse and longitudinal input beam parameters are being explored in order to achieve direct emittance exchange with minimal dilution effects
