The Facility for Advanced Accelerator Experiment Tests (FACET-II) is a National User Facility at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory that aims to provide a platform to develop advanced accelerator concepts and coherent radiation techniques. FACET-II uses about a third of the total length of the Stanford Linear Accelerator to produce dense high-energy electron beams (2nC at 10-13 GeV) and has access to a ~20 TW TiSa laser system that can be used to pre-ionise or characterise plasma sources. These tools enable the study of a wide range of topics covering plasma wakefield acceleration, filamentation and strong-field QED. This talk will introduce the facility, provide an update on the commissioning, and share some highlights of the recent experimental progress at FACET-II.
