  Within the framework of the research on high-gradient accelerating structures for future linear colliders, diagnostics of radio-frequency (RF) breakdowns is of great importance to support the understanding of the vacuum breakdown process. Measurements of RF and electron and ion currents emitted during and after a breakdown can be used to calculate the properties of any objects responsible for such power reflection and charge emission. Possible breakdown models, breakdown localization and a time-scale of the process are here discussed and compared to dedicated measurements. First results are presented.
