A critical time for the APS Upgrade Project is the twelve month dark period in which the current accelerator, front ends, and insertion devices will be removed and the new MBA will be installed. In addition to the technical interfaces, there are a significant number of operational support systems and utilities that will be affected. For the dark period to be a success, these additional interfaces need to be described and their interaction with the removal and installation processes defined. This poster describes many of these additional systems and their interfaces.

The Advanced Photon Source (APS) upgrade from double-bend achromats (DBA) to multi-bend achromats (MBA) lattice has increased the need for reliable diagnos-tic systems. This upgrade will decrease the size of the photon beam drastically and beam current will be in-creased from 100 mA to 200 mA. The small beam and intense heat loads provided by the upgraded APS requires unique and innovative approaches to beam position monitoring. To meet the need for a reliable diagnostic system for the APS upgrade, the next generation X-ray Beam Position Monitoring System (XBPM) is required which includes the first XBPM (XBPM1), the Intensity Monitor (IM1) and the second XBPM (XBPM2). This paper presents progress and status of the current configu-ration of the XBPM system especially the development work involving the IM1 and XBPM2. The R&D work to develop an alternative XBPM1 using the Compton scattering principle is also presented.

The installation, alignment measurement and vibration monitoring of the accelerator equipment are cumbersome. In order to reduce the work intensity and exposure time of personnel, this paper has developed a smart vehicle that can automatically walk and automatically adjust the horizontal in the accelerator or beam line area. The smart vehicle can move forwards, sideways, oblique lines, rotations and combinations, and can automatically adjust the level according to different terrains. The auto-leveling accuracy is better than 0.001 degrees. By installing vibration measuring equipment or collimating equipment on the vehicle platform, vibration testing and collimation measurement of the equipment in the accelerator or beamline device can be performed.

Abstract This work describes mechanical design of a prototype compact wavefront sensor for in situ measurement and monitoring of beam wavefront of hard x-ray beamlines [1]. The system is based on a single-shot grating interferometer [2, 3] and a thin diamond single-crystal beam splitter. The beam splitter is designed to be inserted in the incident and oriented to diffract a fraction of the incident beam bandwidth into the interferometer, for wavefront measurement and reconstruction. The concept is intended to study the feasibility of a non-invasive wavefront sensor for real time wavefront monitoring and diagnostics, with possible application in adaptive mirrors for wavefront preservation and control [1, 4]. The design focus was on compactness to enable easy portability and implementation in a beamline.
