            Experiments have been performed in the HERA proton ring
            (HERA-p) to test a quasi non-destructive method of chromaticity
            measurements for protons. The method is based
            on the detection of the head-tail phase shift of coherend betatron
            oscillations using a broadband beam position pickup
            and a commercial fast-frame oscilloscope. Previous experiments
            have relied on a single kick for transverse excitation,
            whereas the results presented here were carried out
            using swept frequency chirp excitation. The tests proved
            to be successful, and the method seems to be a good candidate
            for chromaticity measurement in new large hadron
            accelerators, such as LHC.

            High order modes (HOM) are generated by the interaction
            of a bunched beam with an accelerator environment. They
            may act destructively on following particle bunches, leading
            to an increase of the transverse oscillation amplitude
            and finally to the deterioration of the emittance. Dipole
            modes have been studied at the S-Band Test Facility at
            DESY. One accelerating structure, specially designed for
            this test linac, is equipped with waveguide pick-ups for
            measuring the HOMs. For one part of the experiments, a
            modulation of the transverse offset of the bunches at the
            structure entrance has been induced using a fast broadband
            kicker and the effect was measured with a precise stripline
            BPM. No high impedance modes were clearly found in the
            structure, which has been detuned and damped by both the
            tapered geometry of the structure and an absorbing stainless
            steel coating applied on the iris tips.
