The Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory is now providing researchers with extreme-brilliance undulator radiation in the hard x-ray region of the spectrum. All technical facilities and components are operational and have met design specifications. Fourteen research teams, occupying 20 sectors on the APS experiment hall floor, are currently installing beamline instrumentation or actively taking data. An overview is presented for the first operational years of the Advanced Photon Source. Emphasis is on the performance of accelerators and insertion devices, as well as early scientific results and future plans.

The Advanced Photon Source (APS) positron storage ring is a 100-mA, 7-GeV, third-generation x-ray synchrotron radiation source which began operation in March 1995. Since that time, significant progress on beamline construction and commissioning has taken place, with many of the x-ray user beamlines in operation. Operational design goals which have been met or exceeded include 8.2-nm-rad emittance, 10-hour lifetime,> 90% availability,> 100-mA average current,> 5-mA single-bunch current,

A 2856-MHz S-band, electron-positron linear accelerator (linac) is the injector and source of particles for the APS. The linac is operated 24 hours per day, with 405-MeV electrons to support commissioning of the other APS accelerators, and with positrons or electrons to support linac studies. It produces electrons with energies up to 655 MeV or positrons with energies up to the design energy of 450 MeV.

The Advanced Photon Source linear accelerator (linac) system consists of a 200-MeV, 2856-MHz S-band electron linac and a 2-radiation-length- thick tungsten target followed by a 450-MeV positron linac. The linac system has operated 24 hours per day for the past two years to support accelerator commissioning and beam studies, and to provide beam for the experimental program. It achieves the design goal for positron current of 8 mA, and produces electron energies up to 650 MeV without the target in place. The linac is described, and its operation and performance are discussed. 9 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab.
