Sumario:The CLIC Test Facility CTF3 has been built at CERN by the Compact Linear Collider (CLIC) International Collaboration, in order to prove the main feasibility issues of the two-beam acceleration technology on which the collider is based. After the successful completion of its initial task, CTF3 is continuing its experimental program in order to give further indications on cost and performance issues, to act as a test bed for the CLIC technology, and to conduct beam experiments aimed at mitigating technological risks. In this paper we discuss the status of the ongoing experiments and present the more recent results, including improvements in beam quality and stability.
