  SNS will use a Nd:YAG laser to measure transverse profiles in the 186-1000 MeV super-conducting LINAC (SCL) and Ti:Sapphire modelock laser to measure longitudinal profiles in the 2.5 MeV Medium Energy Beam Transport (MEBT). The laser beam is scanned across the H- beam to photo-neutralize narrow slices. The liberated electrons are collected to provide a direct measurement of the transverse or longitudinal beam profile. We have successfully measured the transverse profile with a prototype system on the MEBT beam. The final SCL system uses an optical transport line that is installed alongside the 300 meter super-conducting LINAC to deliver laser light at 8 locations. Possible vibrations in the optical transport system can lead to inaccuracies in the profile measurement. We will use an active feedback system on a mirror to correct any vibration up to 2 KHz. In this paper we describe our vibration studies and vibration cancellation system as well as the progress in the design, installation and testing of various subsystems for both the transverse and the longitudinal profiles.
