An electron photo-injector facility has been constructed at Fermilab for the purpose of providing a 14–18 MeV elec-tron beam with high charge per bunch (8 nC), short bunch length (1 mm RMS), and small transverse emittance. The facility was used to commission a second-generation photo-cathode RF gun for the TeSLA Test Facility (TTF) Linac at DESY; in the future, the Fermilab electron beam will be used for R & D in bunch length compres-sion, beam diagnostics, and new acceleration techniques. Acceleration beyond 4 MeV is provided by a 9-cell super-conducting cavity. The cavity also provides a longitudinal position-momentum correlation for subse-quent bunch length compression. We report on the RF tests and a first beam test of this cavity.
