  The ESRF injection complex, comprising a 200MeV linac, a booster accelerator with a top energy of 6GeV and two transfer lines, has been routinely injecting beam to the storage ring since the beginning of its operation. The newly implemented injection with ‘‘front-end open'' triggered several operational improvements in order to maximise the reliability of the complex. A series of diagnostics (sychnotron light monitors, striplines, fast current transformers) were implemented allowing the measurement and monitoring of several components of the injected beam. New optics models were constructed and several application systems as the closed orbit correction or tune measurements have been upgraded. The operational procedures of injection at 100MeV in the booster and the injection efficiency maximisation were renewed and improved. Further developments for the uninterrupted operation of the storage ring during injection, such as the bunch cleaning in the booster were successfully tested.

  Experimental frequency maps have already revealed many unknown characteristics of the ESRF storage ring non-linear dynamics. In the past year, several efforts were undertaken in order to establish this technique as an operational on-line tool. The acquisition time was significantly reduced by collecting data from a dedicated fast BPM system. The problem of beam decoherence was limited by establishing a method for accurate tune determination in a small number of turns, using the information from all the BPMs around the ring. The possibility to explore the off-momentum dynamics by exciting the beam, with synchronous transverse and longitudinal kicks was also investigated. Finally, measurements of resonance driving term amplitudes and phase advances were used to identify the efficiency of resonance corrections.

  Transverse impedance increase due to installation of low gap vacuum chambers is a general effect observed in synchrotron light sources. ESRF has been sensitive to this increase of impedance, as its single bunch threshold has dramatically decreased. This paper presents a method based on closed orbit distortion measurements, witch allows to measure locally the vertical effective impedance. Results of measurements performed on low gap vacuum chambers and in-vacuum ondulators are presented. As an extension to this experiment, a new global method is discussed. This method, also based on closed orbit measurement allows measuring simultaneously all areas of high impedance in the machine

  The ESRF injector booster accelerates electron bunches from 200 MeV to 6 GeV and inject them in a storage ring. It can accelerate a small number (1 to 5) of high charge bunches for the so called "time structure" filling mode operation of the SR. In this case we must avoid storing parasitic low charge bunches in the unused RF bucket of the SR. Until now this was achieved by a resonant knockout of these parasitic bunches on the beam stored in the SR. We have developed and implemented a system allowing the removal of these parasitic electrons during the acceleration in the booster, so that no extra cleaning is needed on the beam stored in the SR. This paper describes our setup and its key components, the tuning of the operating parameters of the system and presents the results achieved.
