The discovery by the ATLAS and CMS experiments of a new boson with mass around 125 GeV measured properties compatible those Standard-Model Higgs boson, coupled absence discoveries phenomena beyond Standard Model at TeV scale, has triggered interest in ideas for future factories. A circular e+e- collider hosted 80 to 100 km tunnel, TLEP, is among most attractive solutions proposed so far. It clean experimental environment, produces high luminosity top-quark, W Z studies, accommodates multiple...
The electron-positron collider DAPhiNE, the Italian Phi factory, has been recently upgraded in order to implement an innovative collision scheme based on large crossing angle, small beam sizes at point, and compensation of beam-beam interaction by means sextupole pairs creating a "crab-waist" configuration region.

SPARC (acronym of ``Sorgente Pulsata ed Amplificata di Radiazione Coerente'', i.e. Pulsed and Amplified Source Coherent Radiation) is a single pass free-electron laser designed to obtain high gain amplification at radiation wavelength 500 nm. Self-amplified spontaneous emission has been observed driving the amplifier with high-brightness beam linac. We report measurements energy, spectra, exponential gain. Experimental results are compared simulations from several numerical codes.
Ultra-short electron beams, produced through the velocity bunching compression technique, are used to drive SPARC linear accelerator based source, which relies on emission of coherent transition radiation in terahertz range. This paper reports main features this radiation, as with spectral coverage up 5 THz and pulse duration down 200 fs, an energy per order several micro-joule, beam longitudinal diagnostics.
