  The accelerator complex of the Swiss Light Source (SLS) is presently under commissioning at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Villigen, Switzerland. The newly developed digital beam position monitor (DBPM) system has been successfully used to determine beam positions in the pre-injector LINAC, the transfer lines, the booster synchrotron and the storage ring. Instant and free selection of operation modes through the EPICS-based SLS control system allows to choose between single turn, turn-by-turn and closed orbit measurements. The operational experience and performance of the DBPM system is presented, based on measurements, taken during SLS commissioning. A monitoring system (POMS), which measures the horizontal and vertical mechanical positions of each BPM block in reference to the adjacent quadrupole magnets has been installed and first results, indicating transverse movements of the BPM blocks as a function of current in the storage ring will be presented.

  The time-structure monitor at the last turn of the 72MeV Injector-2 cyclotron has been improved in order to meet the stringent time-resolution requirement imposed by the short bunch length. Protons scattered by a thin carbon-fibre target pass through a first scintillator-photomultiplier detector and are stopped in a second one. The longitudinal bunch shape is given by the distribution of arrival times measured with respect to the 50 MHz reference signal from the acceleration cavities. From a coincidence measurement, the time resolution of the detectors has been determined to be 51 ps and 31 ps fwhm. Longitudinal and horizontal bunch shapes have been measured at beam currents from 25μA to 1700μA. Approximately circular bunches were observed with diameter increasing with current. The shortest observed proton bunch length was 38 ps fwhm.

  At the Swiss Light Source, a source imaging set-up is planned on a dedicated dipole magnet beam-line. A transmission Fresnel Zone Plate will be used to generate a demagnified image of the source at a photon energy in the 1.8 keV range. The image will be acquired by scanning a pinhole in the image plane. A diffraction limited spatial resolution of approximately 2 microns can be anticipated. The concept has the advantage of having no components operated in reflection, and no components inside the frontend.
