A new 3rd generation light source (NSLS-II project) is in the early stage of construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The NSLS-II facility will provide ultra high brightness and flux with exceptional beam stability. It presents several challenges in the diagnostics and instrumentation, related to the extremely small emittance. In this paper, we present an overview of all planned instrumentation systems, results from research & development activities; and then focus on other challenging aspects.

The thermal distortion resulting from BPM button trapped mode heating is potentially problematic for achieving the high precision beam position measurement needed to provide the sub-micron beam position stability required by light source users. We present a button design that has been thermo-mechanically optimized via material selection and component geometry to minimize this thermal distortion. Detailed electromagnetic analysis of the button geometry is presented elsewhere in these proceedings.

The NSLS-II Light Source being built at Brookhaven National Laboratory is expected to provide submicron stability of the electron orbit in the storage ring in order to utilize fully the very small emittances and electron beam sizes. This requires high stability supports for BPM pick-up electrodes, located near insertion device source. Description of the efforts for development of supports including carbon tubes and invar rods is presented.

The NSLS-II Light Source being built at Brookhaven National Laboratory is expected to provide very small emittances and electron beam sizes. High resolution imaging systems are required in order to provide robust measurements. The pinhole cameras will utilize 5-fold magnification with a pinhole placed inside a crotch absorber. The pinhole is protected from high power synchrotron radiation with a filter made of refractory metal. In this paper we provide resolution analyses, heat load calculations, and optimization of NSLS-II pinhole cameras including beamline design.
