CESRTA X-RAY BEAM SIZE MONITOR OPERATION
2010
We report on the design and operation of the CesrTA xray beam size monitor (xBSM). The xBSM resolution must be sufficient to measure vertical beam sizes of order 10um by imaging 2-4keV synchrotron radiation photons onto a one-dimensional photodiode array. Instrumentation in the evacuated x-ray beam line includes upstream interchangeable optics elements (slits, coded apertures, and Fresnel zone plates), a monochromator and an InGaAs photodiode detector. The readout is a beamsynchronized FADC that is capable of parallel measurement of consecutive bunches with 4ns spacing. The xBSM has been used to measure beam sizes during the August 2009, November 2009, and April 2010 runs. Single turn measurements are fit to characteristic image shapes to extract beam sizes independent of position variations. The turn-averaged beam size provides feedback for low-emittance tuning.
