TL;DR: The versatility and accuracy of programs such as LALA and specially SUPERFISH to calculate the rf properties of standing-wave cavities for linacs and storage rings is by now well established.

Abstract: An experimental station for an X-band Next Linear Collider has been constructed at SLAC. This station consists of a klystron and modulator, a low-loss waveguide system for RF power distribution, a SLED II pulse-compression and peak-power multiplication system, acceleration sections and beam-line components (gun, pre-buncher, pre-accelerator, focussing elements and spectrometer). An extensive program of experiments to evaluate the performance of all components is underway. The station is described in detail in this paper, and results to date are presented.<>

TL;DR: In this paper, the idea of replacing the steel poles with pole pieces of the high permeability material Permendur was investigated, and the new magnets were completed, and measurements agreed well with the calculations.

TL;DR: In this paper, the main damping rings and the positron pre-damping ring for the SLAC Next Linear Collider (SLAC Next LCL) were described, which operates at an energy of 2 GeV with a maximum repetition rate of 180 Hz.

TL;DR: An experimental station for an X-band Next Linear Collider has been constructed at SLAC, which consists of a klystron and modulator, a low-loss waveguide system for RF power distribution, a SLED II pulse-compression and peak-power multiplication system, acceleration sections and beam-line components as mentioned in this paper.
