  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.

  Electron beam diagnostics methods based interference and diffraction of synchrotron radiation (SR) in hard X-ray range will be discussed. Two simple optical schemes providing X-ray interference patterns highly sensitive to transverse size of the emitting electron beam, will be considered. For each scheme, the visibility of fringes in the pattern depends on transverse size of the electron beam. However, the pattern is also determined by the scheme geometry, shape and material of diffracting bodies. Therefore, for correct interpretation of the experimental results, high-accuracy computation of SR emission and propagation in the framework of physical optics should be used. Examples of practical measurements and processing of the results are presented.

  Experimental Hall B at Jefferson Lab (JLAB) typically operates with CW electron beam currents in the range of 1-10 nA. This low beam current coupled with a 30 Hz flip rate of the beam helicity required the development of new devices to measure and monitor the beam charge asymmetry. We have developed four independent devices with sufficient bandwidth for readout at 30 Hz rate: a synchrotron light monitor (SLM), two backward optical transition radiation monitors (OTR) and a Faraday Cup. We present the results from the successful operation of these devices during the fall 2000 physics program. The reliability and the bandwidth of the devices allowed the control of the current asymmetry at the source laser by means of a feedback loop.  
 
PS17 Beam Size Measurement of the Spring-8 Storage Ring by Two-Dimensional Interferometer instrumentation, diagnostics, SPring-8, emittance 142

  Two-dimensional interferometer using visible synchrotron radiation was developed in order to measure beam sizes at a source point in a bending magnet of the SPring-8 storage ring. The theoretical background of this method is described in the framework of wave-optics. Assuming designed optics parameters, transverse emittance was evaluated from measured beam size.  
 
PS18 Planned X-Ray Imaging of the Electron Beam at the SPRING-8 Diagnostics Beamline BL38B2 instrumentation, diagnostics, SPring-8, emittance 145

  X-ray imaging observation of the electron beam is planned at the SPring-8 storage ring diagnostics beamline BL38B2 to evaluate small vertical emittance. The resolution target is 1 micron of electron beam size (1s). The synchrotron radiation from a dipole magnet source will be imaged by a single phase zone plate. Monochromatic X-ray with energy of 8keV will be selected by a double crystal monochromator. The magnification factor of the zoneplate is 0.27, and an X-ray zooming tube will be used as a detector to compensate for demagnification.

  Synchrotron radiation sources like DELTA need an optical monitoring system to measure the beam size at different points of the ring with high resolution and accuracy. An investigation of the emittance of the storage ring can also be done by these measurements. Scope of this paper is the investigation of the resolution limit of the different types of optical synchrotron light monitors at DELTA, a third generation synchrotron radiation source. At first the normal synchrotron light monitor is analysed. The minimum measurable electron beamsize at DELTA is about 80μm. Emphasis is then put on a special synchrotron light interferometer, developed for DELTA, which has been built up and tested. This interferometer uses the same beamline and can measure beamsizes down to about 8μm. So its resolution is about ten times better and sufficient for the expected small vertical beamsizes at DELTA. Measurements of the electron beamsize and emittance were done with both (synchrotron light monitor and interferometer) at different energies. The image processing system based on a PC Framegrabber generates a gaussian fit to the images from different synchrotron light-monitors and calculates the beamsizes and positions. An investigation of possible reasons of beam movements will be appended, because the theoretical values of the present optics are smaller than the measured emittance.

  The European synchrotron radiation facility uses a stored electron beam in order to produce x-rays for the study of matter. Some experiments make use of the time structure of the x-ray beam which is a direct reflection of the time structure in the electron beam itself. Avalanche photo-diodes have been used in an x-ray beam in a photon counting arrangement to measure the purity of single or few bunch filling modes. Conventional techniques measuring the photon arrival times with a time to analogue converter (TAC) achieve dynamic ranges in the 10-6 range. We report here the use of a gated high count rate device achieving a measurement capability of 10-10. Such high purity filling modes are required in synchrotron light sources producing x-ray pulses for experiments looking at very weak decay signals as seen in M”ssbauer experiments..
