This article needs attention from an expert in Physics. The specific problem is: The nature of this subject requires an expert to do even fairly basic assessment of the content. Hopefully an expert may be able to help shape the development of the article, provide some feedback and suggestions on what's needed or missing. WikiProject Physics may be able to help recruit an expert. (January 2016)

This article may be in need of reorganization to comply with Wikipedia's layout guidelines. Please help by editing the article to make improvements to the overall structure. (January 2016) (Learn how and when to remove this message)

This article's lead section may be too short to adequately summarize the key points. Please consider expanding the lead to provide an accessible overview of all important aspects of the article. (January 2016)

The CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3)^[1] at CERN aims to demonstrate the feasibility of the Compact Linear Collider.^[2]

It primarily consist in a scaled version of the CLIC drive beam: a 4 A, 1.5 GHz, ~120 MeV, 1.2 μs beam is a generated in a fully loaded linac. The so called delay loop and combiner ring are then used to compress the beam pulse into a 140 ns, 28 A, 12 GHz pulse.

In parallel a 200 MeV probe-beam is generated by the so called CALIFES injector.^[3]

The two beams are then used to demonstrate the two-beam acceleration in the Two-Beam-Module installed into the CLEX area: the drive beam is decelerated in special Power Extraction and Transfer Structures (PETS), and the power produced used to accelerate the probe-beam with a gradient up to 145 MeV/m.
