Abstract :
Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) consists of a 1.54 GeV S-band linac, a beam transport line, a damping ring and an extraction beam line. A beam commissioning of the linac was performed in November 1995. A single bunch and multi-bunch beam were accelerated up to 1.43 GeV at the end of the beam transport line. The beam experiments on high-gradient acceleration, structure BPM and multi-bunch energy compensation were performed after the beam commissioning. The operation of the linac was suspended from April 1996 for the construction of the damping ring. The operation of the linac was restarted from December 1996, and the beam commissioning of the damping ring was carried out in January 1997
