  In the recent years, Russian government and scientific society have been coming gradually to an understanding the way of development science in Russia. Government have accepted a program of building six mega-science projects, and one of them can be a new 4-th generation x-ray light source based on accelerator-recuperator. Multiturn energy recovery linacs (ERL) looks very promising for making modern synchrotron radiation sources, being less expensive and more flexible. At this time only one multiturn ERL exists. This Novosibirsk ERL operates with two orbits and two free electron lasers based on one linac now. The conception of Multiturn Accelerator-recuperator Radiation Source (MARS) was proposed in 1997 by G.N. Kulipanov, A.N. Skrinsky and N.A. Vinokurov. The use of the ERL with two separated accelerating structures allows to exclude main disadvantages of scheme with one linac, such as the pass of electron bunches with different energies through the same magnetic arcs. The feasibility study for such ERL-based high brightness x-ray source is presented.

  The free electron laser (FEL) facility at Budker INP is being developed for more than 15 years. It is based on the normal conducting CW energy recovery linac (ERL) with rather complicated magnetic system lattice. Up to now it is the only one in the world multiorbit ERL. It can operate in three different regimes providing electron beam for three different FELs. Its commissioning was naturally divided in three stages. The first stage ERL includes only one orbit placed in vertical plane. It serves as electron beam source for terahertz FEL which started working for users in 2003. Radiation of this FEL is used by several groups of scientists including biologists, chemists and physicists. Its high peak and average powers are utilized in experiments on material ablation and biological objects modification. The second stage ERL is composed of two orbits located in horizontal plane. The second stage FEL is installed on the bypass of the second orbit. The first lasing of this FEL was achieved in 2009. The last stage ERL will include four orbits. Its commissioning is in progress now. In this paper we report the latest results obtained from the operating FELs as well as our progress with the commissioning of the two remaining ERL beamlines. We also discuss possible options for the future upgrade.
