A detailed understanding of the physics of space-charge dominated beams is vital for many modern accelerators. In that regard, low-energy, high-intensity electron beams provide an excellent model system. The University of Maryland Electron Ring (UMER) has been designed to study the physics of space-charge dominated beams with extreme intensity in a strong focusing lattice with dispersion. At 10-keV, 100 mA, the UMER beam has a generalized perveance of 0.0015. Though compact (11-m in circumference), UMER is a very complex device. An update on construction and early experimental results is presented. ©2002 American Institute of Physics
