  ADAM (Application of Detectors and Accelerators to Medicine) is a CERN spin-off company currently working on the construction and testing of the LIGHT (Linac for Image-Guided Hadron Therapy) machine. LIGHT is an innovative high-frequency linac based proton therapy system designed to accelerate protons up to 230 MeV: it consists of three different linac sections i.e. a 750 MHz Radio Frequency Quadrupole (RFQ) accelerating the beam up to 5 MeV; a 3 GHz Side Coupled Drift Tube Linac (SCDTL) up to 37.5 MeV; and a 3 GHz Coupled Cavity Linac (CCL) section up to 230 MeV. The compact and modular design is based on cutting edge technologies developed for particle colliders and adapted to the needs of hadron therapy beams. The LIGHT development machine is currently being built at CERN and this paper describes its design aspects and its different stages of installation and commissioning.

  PERLE is a proposed multi-pass Energy Recovery Linac, based on SRF technology, to be built at Orsay, France, in a collaborative effort between local laboratories LAL/IN2P3, IPNO/IN2P3 and international partners such as JLAB, STFC, Liverpool University, BINP and CERN. A part from experimental program, PERLE will serve as testbed to study a broad range of accelerator phenomena and to validate technical choices for the LHeC, which aims at electron proton collisions using the existing LHC machine together with an added electron ERL. In its final configuration, PERLE provides a 500 MeV electron beam using high current (20 mA) acceleration during three passes through 801.6 MHz cavities. This talk outlines the technological choices, the lattice design and describes the potential contributions of the interested partners.
