We describe the design and construction of the electron beam for the Fermilab Electron Cooling Experiment. Important parameters are (1) 110 keV kinetic energy; (2) 26 A current; (3) 0.5 eV rest frame temperature; (4) space charge neutralization; (5) beam modulation; (6) efficient energy recovery at the collector. The 5 m overlap region between the electron beam and the storage ring orbit represents 4% of the total ring circumference. Copyright 1979 by The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc.
