Abstract :
The UCLA RF photo-injector system has been commissioned. All of the sub-components such as the high power RF, pico-second laser, RF photo-injector cavity, diagnostics, and supporting hardware have been tested and are operational. We briefly discuss the performance of the various components since the details of each subsystem are very lengthy. The laser delivers a sub 4 ps pulse containing 0-300 μJ of energy per pulse. The photo-injector produces 0-3 nC per bunch with an RF induced emittance of 1.5 π(mm-mrad)
