Abstract :
A collinear wakefield test facility using two linacs with a common test section is constructed. Beams from one linac excite wakefields in a test medium such as a plasma, while beams from the other linac witness the wakefields. The time interval between the two beams is controllable with an accuracy of ~1 psec. Plasma wakefield acceleration and plasma lens experiments were conducted using this facility
