Abstract :
For improved reliability, the front-end of the LEP (Large Electron Positron colliding beam accelerator) Injector Linac (LIL) has been replaced. The new system has been used for LEP runs since March of 1991. The experimental results presented show a significant improvement of beam characteristics. These results also agree well with those of the simulation programs.<>
