  The European X-ray Free Electron laser (EuXFEL) is a 3.4 km long research facility which generates ultrashort X-ray flashes of outstanding brilliance since 2017. Up to 27000 electron bunches per second are accelerated in a 1.3 km long superconducting radio frequency (SRF) linac to a maximum energy of 17.6 GeV. Within this time, operational experience with a pulsed RF machine has been gained and new operation modes simultaneously delivering electron bunches to 3 different SASE undulator beamlines have been successfully implemented. Recent activities on increasing the linac availability, power efficiency and duty cycle are discussed.

  CEA is committed to delivering a Medium Energy Beam Transfer line and a superconducting linac (SCL) for SARAF accelerator in order to accelerate 5 mA beam of either protons from 1.3 MeV to 35 MeV or deuterons from 2.6 MeV to 40 MeV. The SCL consists in four cryomodules. The first cryomodule hosts 6 half-wave resonator (HWR) low beta cavities (β = 0.09) at 176 MHz. The low-beta cavities were qualified in 2021, as well as the power couplers and frequency tuners. The Low-Level RF (LLRF) system was qualified in 2022 with a dedicated test stand. This contribution will present the results of the RF tests of the first SARAF cryomodule at Saclay.
