Abstract

The Southern European Thomson back-scattering source for Applied Research (STAR) is a high-energy photon facility located on the campus of the University of Calabria (UniCal). The facility was designed for its first phase to operate with an electron and photon energy up to 85 MeV and 140 keV respectively. For the second phase of the project the energy of the electrons, and thereby the photons, would be increased up to 150 MeV and 350 keV respectively. The Italian Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN) was awarded the project for installing, testing, and commissioning the energy upgrade of the electron beamline. In this article, we will outline the progress of this upgrade. In particular the completion of the site acceptance test of the RF system and the IT infrastructure combined with the control system software.
