Abstract
The Argonne Wakefield Accelerator (AWA) is a research facility which should possess unprecedented research capabilities for the study of wake fields and related areas requiring short, intense electron bunches. The AWA is designed to produce 100-nC, 14-ps (full width) electron bunches at rep rates up to 30 Hz. Phase-I of the AWA, now under construction, will provide these pulses at 20 MeV for various experiments. Current designs, related research and development, and construction status are presented in this general overview and project update.<>
