COMMISSIONING OF THE 100 MEV PREINJECTOR FOR THE ALBA

A turn key 100 MeV linac was provided by THALES Communications in order to inject electrons into the booster synchrotron of ALBA [1]. The linac was commissioned in October 2008. This paper reminds the main features of the linac [2] and gives results obtained during the commissioning tests. The energy and emittance measurements have been done on the transfer line designed and installed by CELLS. Specified and measured beam parameters will be compared.
