N2 - Recently, the JAERI superconducting RF linac based FEL has been successfully lased to produce 0.36 kW of FEL light using a 100 kW electron beam in quasi-continuous wave operation. A l kW class laser is our present program goal, and will be achieved by improving the optical out coupling in the PEL optical resonator, the electron gun, and the electron beam optics in the JAERI FEL driver. Our next 5-year program goal is to produce a 100 kW-class FEL laser and multi-MW class electron beam in average, quasi-continuous wave operation. Conceptual and engineering design options needed for such a very high-power operation will be discussed to improve and to upgrade the existing facility.
