The European Synchrotron radiation facility is a third
generation x-ray source providing x-rays on a continuous
basis. As a facility available to external users, the
monitoring of radiation caused by the loss of high-energy
stored beam is of great concern. A network of beam loss
monitors has been installed inside the storage ring tunnel
so as to detect and localize the slow loss of electrons
during a beam decay. This diagnostic tool allows
optimization of beam parameters and physical aperture
limits as well as giving useful information on the
machine to allow the lifetime to be optimized and
defects localized.
