Elec­tron cloud con­fined to move in the ver­ti­cal di­rec­tion by ei­ther the wig­gler field or a dipole field has been in­ves­ti­gat­ed ex­ten­sive­ly. We pre­sent re­sults of an anal­y­sis demon­strat­ing that elec­trons may be trapped in the re­gion of zero ver­ti­cal field of a wig­gler. Their char­ac­ter­is­tic fre­quen­cy and life-time are es­tab­lished and some of the im­pli­ca­tions are dis­cussed.

The Cor­nell Elec­tron Stor­age Ring (CESR) has been re­con­fig­ured as a test ac­cel­er­a­tor (Ces­r­TA) for a pro­gram of elec­tron cloud (EC) re­search at ultra low emit­tance. The in­stru­men­ta­tion in the ring has been up­grad­ed with local di­ag­nos­tics for mea­sure­ment of cloud den­si­ty and with im­proved beam di­ag­nos­tics for the char­ac­ter­i­za­tion of both the low emit­tance per­for­mance and the beam dy­nam­ics of high in­ten­si­ty bunch trains in­ter­act­ing with the cloud. Fi­nal­ly a range of EC mit­i­ga­tion meth­ods have been de­ployed and test­ed. Mea­sure­ments of cloud den­si­ty and its im­pact on the beam under a range of con­di­tions will be pre­sent­ed and com­pared with sim­u­la­tions. The ef­fec­tive­ness of a range of mit­i­ga­tion tech­niques will also be dis­cussed.
