Sumario: | The CERN Linear Accelerator for Research (CLEAR) at CERN is a versatile user facility providing a 200 MeV electron beam for accelerator R&D;, irradiation studies for space, and medical applications. After successful operation in 2017-2020, CLEAR running was extended in 2021 for another 5-year period. In the paper we give a status of the facility, outlining recent progress in beam performance and hardware improvements. We report on beam operation over the last years and review the main results of experimental activities. Finally, we discuss the planned upgrades together with the proposed future experimental program. |
