  Different techniques of emittance and stability monitoring using bend magnet and undulator radiation will be reviewed. Besides imaging methods for emittance monitoring , the problem of XBPM's used for the measurement of the centre of mass position of the undulator beams will be treated in detail. The key feature of these monitors is a careful electron optical design to take account of gap dependent changes of the shape and photon energy of the undulator beam as well as spurious signals from dipoles and high heat load. The reason for the fact that these monitors work well on low energy machines like BESSY II but often fail due in high energy machines will be demonstrated by experimental results obtained on different types of BESSY II insertion devices such as undulators, wavelength shifters, multipole wigglers and electromagnetic undulators. Experimental results of global and local orbit monitoring and a proof of principle of a XBPM-based local feedback will be shown.

  For the sensitive process of slow extraction from a synchrotron a reliable control of the beam losses is needed. We have tested several types of particle detectors mounted at the extraction path of the SIS: A BF-tube for pure neutron detection, a liquid and a plastic scintillator detecting neutrons, gammas and charged particles and an Argon filled ionization chamber mainly sensitive to charged particles. While the count rate is quite different, the time evolution of all detector signals during the spill are similar, but the plastic scintillator has the highest dynamic range. This type is going to be used for beam alignment.

  An extension of existing multiplex BPM electronics to provide capability for turn-by-turn beam position and phase advance measurement is implemented. The system can be configured as turn-by-turn beam position measurement or phase advance and coupling measurement. For turn-by-turn mode, the system performed four consecutive measurements of four BPM buttons. Data acquisition is synchronize with beam excitation. Turn-by-turn beam position is reconstructed by these four independent measurements. This system was named as pseudo-turn-by-turn beam position monitor system (PTTBPM). Resonance excitation of the stored beam and adopting lock-in techniques can measure betatron phase and local coupling. Design considerations of the system and preliminary beam test results are presented in this report.

  Two Low Gap BPMs have been successfully installed at ELETTRA and have now completed the commissioning phase. The main purpose of these new devices is to provide stable beam position measurement, at sub-micron level, to monitor the stability of the light delivered to the Users. The improvements with respect to the normal BPM system have been obtained adopting both a new Low Gap BPM sensor and a new non-multiplexed BPM detector, the latter being developed in co-operation with the SLS diagnostic group at the PSI. Beside the Closed Orbit mode, thanks to the digitally selectable bandwidth, the new BPM detector can be operated also in the Turn-by-Turn mode and provide the position signal to feedback loops. In this paper we first briefly review the system architecture, describing its mechanical and electronic parts. Then, we present the digital BPM detector set-up used at ELETTRA and the associated firmware required by the four-channel BPM detector to guarantee performance over the full dynamic range. The BPMposition monitoring system is also described and its integration in the BPM system presented. Laboratory tests confirmed sub-micron resolution at 10kHz data rate. A series of beam based measurements have been performed in order to test this system and to verify the improvement in performance. The system is presently used in the control room as a powerful beam quality monitor; its extension to other Storage Ring straight sections is under evaluation.  
 
PM16 The Measurement and Optimisation of Lattice Parameters on the ISIS Synchrotron instrumentation, diagnostics, ISIS, lattice 204

  The ISIS Synchrotron accelerates a high intensity proton beam from 70 to 800 MeV at 50 Hz. Recent hardware upgrades to the diagnostics, instrumentation and computing have allowed turn by turn transverse position measurements to be made. A special low intensity beam can also be injected for detailed diagnostic measurements. The analysis of such data at many points around the ring has allowed the extraction of lattice parameters. This information will have significant application for improved beam control. The methods of analysis as well as some applications for setting up and optimising the machine are described in this paper. Future plans and relevance for high intensity performance is also given.
