	FELs require a reproducible distribution of the bunch core at the undulator entrance for robust and reliable lasing. However, various mechanisms drive particles from the core to form a beam halo, which can scrape the beampipe of the undulator and damage its magnets. Collimators can trim the halo, but at the 1-MHz repetition rate of SLAC’s LCLS-II superconducting linac, the collimator jaws can be activated and damaged. The Machine Protection System (MPS) can detect excessive radiation and halt the beam, but repeated MPS trips lead to significant downtime. Halo control begins by studying its structure, formation, and evolution, using a sensitive halo monitor. To that end, we are developing a pixellated diamond sensor. Diamond offers a dynamic range of up to 7 orders of magnitude, extending from the edge of the core to the faint halo expected at greater distances. Nalu Scientific has developed fast electronics for high-rate shot-by-shot readout. Initial tests are starting with a prototype 16-pixel sensor at the beam dump of SLAC’s FACET-II test facility. The tests and simulations will guide more elaborate sensor designs.

TUP028	Collimator Irradiation Studies at the Advanced Photon Source	experiment, simulation, storage-ring, radiation	245

	Funding: Work supported by the U.S. D.O.E.,Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, under contract number DE-AC02- 06CH11357. We present results from a recent collimator irradiation experiment conducted in the Advanced Photon Source (APS) storage ring. This experiment is the third in a series of studies to examine the effects of high-intensity electron beams on potential collimator material for the APS-Upgrade (APS-U). The intent here is to determine if a fan-out kicker can sufficiently reduce e-beam power density to protect horizontal collimators planned for the APS-U storage-ring. The fan-out kicker (FOK) spreads the bunched-beam vertically allowing it to grow in transverse dimensions prior to striking the collimator. In the present experiment, one of the two collimator test pieces is fabricated from oxygen-free copper; the other from 6061-T6 aluminum. As in past studies, diagnostics include turn-by-turn BPMs, a diagnostic image system, fast beam loss monitors, a pin-hole camera, and a current monitor. Post-irradiation analyses employ microscopy and metallurgy. To avoid confusion from multiple strikes, only three beam aborts are carried out on each of the collimator pieces; two with the FOK on and the other with it off. Observed hydrodynamic behavior will be compared with coupled codes.

TUP042	Nano-Amp Beam Current Diagnostic for Linac-to-ESA (LESA) Beamline	detector, electron, linac, radiation	285
	S.T. Littleton Stanford University, Stanford, California, USA A.S. Fisher, C. Huang, T.O. Raubenheimer SLAC, Menlo Park, California, USA
	The LESA beamline is designed to transport dark current from the LCLS-II and LCLS-II-HE superconducting linacs to the End Station A for various fixed target experiments. The primary experiment is expected to be the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) which required beam currents of a few pA. The operation of the beam line much be parasitic to the LCLS-II / LCLS-II-HE FEL operation. The dark current in the LCLS-II is expected to be at the nA-level which will be below the resolution of most of the LCLS-II diagnostics (it will be degraded before the experiments as necessary). This paper will describe a possible non-destructive diagnostic using synchrotron radiation that could be applied at multiple locations along the LCLS-II and the LESA beamline.

	The ever-developing accelerator capabilities of increasing beam intensity, e.g. for High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), demand novel non-invasive beam diagnostics. As a part of the HL-LHC project a Beam Gas Curtain monitor (BGC), a gas jet-based fluorescence transverse profile monitor, is being developed. The BGC uses a supersonic gas jet sheet that traverses the beam at 45° and visualizes a two-dimensional beam-induced fluorescent image. The principle of observing photons created by fluorescence makes the monitor insensitive to present electric or magnetic fields. Therefore, the monitor is well suited for high-intensity beams such as low-energy electron beam of Hollow Electron Lens (HEL), and HL-LHC proton beam, either as a profile or an overlap monitor. This talk will focus on the first gas jet measured transverse profile of the 7keV hollow electron beam. The measurements were carried out at the Electron Beam Test Stand at CERN testing up to 5A beam for HEL. A comparison with Optical Transition Radiation measurements shows consistency with the BGC results. The BGC installation of January 2023 at LHC is shown, including past results from distributed gas fluorescence tests.

	Funding: This research used resources of the Advanced Photon Source, operated for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science by Argonne National Laboratory under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357. A new synchrotron light monitor has been tested for the booster synchrotron of the Advanced Photon Source. Visible light synchrotron radiation is collected by a mirror on a path tangential to the electron beam orbit, and directed to an optical imaging system and camera. This is planned to be a non-intercepting, transverse beam-size monitor even with the higher stored beam charges (~17 nC) needed for the Advanced Photon Source Upgrade. In the present work, we describe the present synchrotron radiation diagnostic layout. An analysis of the synchrotron radiation power on the mirror, the optical layout with components, and features of the control system will be presented.

WEP020	Performance Evaluation of GAGG+ and Tungsten Carbide Blades in an X-ray Pinhole Camera	synchrotron, diagnostics, synchrotron-radiation, radiation	382
	S.B. Burholt, L. Bobb, N. Vitoratou DLS, Harwell, United Kingdom
	At Diamond Light Source two X-ray pinhole cameras are used to measure the transverse profile of the 3 GeV electron beam. The current pinhole assembly is formed using tungsten blades with chemically etched shims to produce a 25 µm x 25 µm aperture and the imager incorporates a 0.2 mm LuAG:Ce scintillator. Tungsten carbide is a machinable high-Z material which at millimetre thicknesses is opaque to X-rays. With a slight change in pinhole design, similar to that already in place at the ESRF, tungsten carbide blades could offer a well-controlled aperture size for the pinhole camera with simpler assembly. Further to this, improvements to the photon yield of scintillators mean that the new scintillator GAGG+ has an almost two fold increase in yield compared to the current LuAG: Ce scintillator. An evaluation of the tungsten carbide blades and GAGG+ scintillator is presented.

WEP021	100Hz X-ray Beam Profile Measurements from a Transmissive CVD Diamond Detector	detector, synchrotron, experiment, focusing	387
	C. Bloomer, L. Bobb DLS, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom M.E. Newton University of Warwick, Coventry, United Kingdom
	A non-destructive CVD diamond X-ray beam imaging monitor has been developed for synchrotron beamlines. The device can be permanently installed in the X-ray beam path and is capable of transmissively imaging the beam profile at 100 frames per second. The response of this transmissive detector at this imaging rate is compared to synchronously acquired images using a destructive fluorescent screen. It is shown that beam position, size, and intensity measurements can be obtained with minimal disturbance to the transmitted X-ray beam. This functionality is beneficial to synchrotron beamlines as it enables them to monitor the X-ray beam focal size and position in real-time, during user experiments. This is a key enabling technology that would enable live beam size feedback, keeping the beamline’s focusing optics optimised at all times. Ground vibrations (10-20Hz) can cause movement of focusing optics and beamline mirrors, which disturb the X-ray beam and reduce the ultimate quality of the sample-point beam. This instrument can detect this beam motion, enabling the source to be more easily determined and mitigations to be put in place.

	Funding: This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661, the State of Michigan and Michigan State University. We report on the status of work on a non-invasive profile monitor under development for use at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), a heavy-ion LINAC which produces high-intensity, multi-charge state beams. The measurement will be made by collecting photons generated at the interaction point of the beam and a collimated molecular gas curtain. These photons will be collected with an intensified camera system, generating a two dimensional image and allowing for measurements of profile, beam halo, and other properties more prevalent at specific locations of interest, such as charge state spread after folding segment bends. Included will be ongoing design specifications, simulation results, and discussion of measurement techniques for acquiring signal from the device.

At Diamond Light Source two X-ray pinhole cameras are used to measure the transverse profile of the 3 GeV electron beam. The current pinhole assembly is formed using tungsten blades with chemically etched shims to produce a 25 µm x 25 µm aperture and the imager incorporates a 0.2 mm LuAG:Ce scintillator. Tungsten carbide is a machinable high-Z material which at millimetre thicknesses is opaque to X-rays. With a slight change in pinhole design, similar to that already in place at the ESRF, tungsten carbide blades could offer a well-controlled aperture size for the pinhole camera with simpler assembly. Further to this, improvements to the photon yield of scintillators mean that the new scintillator GAGG+ has an almost two fold increase in yield compared to the current LuAG: Ce scintillator. An evaluation of the tungsten carbide blades and GAGG+ scintillator is presented.

A non-destructive CVD diamond X-ray beam imaging monitor has been developed for synchrotron beamlines. The device can be permanently installed in the X-ray beam path and is capable of transmissively imaging the beam profile at 100 frames per second. The response of this transmissive detector at this imaging rate is compared to synchronously acquired images using a destructive fluorescent screen. It is shown that beam position, size, and intensity measurements can be obtained with minimal disturbance to the transmitted X-ray beam. This functionality is beneficial to synchrotron beamlines as it enables them to monitor the X-ray beam focal size and position in real-time, during user experiments. This is a key enabling technology that would enable live beam size feedback, keeping the beamline’s focusing optics optimised at all times. Ground vibrations (10-20Hz) can cause movement of focusing optics and beamline mirrors, which disturb the X-ray beam and reduce the ultimate quality of the sample-point beam. This instrument can detect this beam motion, enabling the source to be more easily determined and mitigations to be put in place.

Funding: This material is based upon work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science under Cooperative Agreement DE-SC0000661, the State of Michigan and Michigan State University.
We report on the status of work on a non-invasive profile monitor under development for use at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB), a heavy-ion LINAC which produces high-intensity, multi-charge state beams. The measurement will be made by collecting photons generated at the interaction point of the beam and a collimated molecular gas curtain. These photons will be collected with an intensified camera system, generating a two dimensional image and allowing for measurements of profile, beam halo, and other properties more prevalent at specific locations of interest, such as charge state spread after folding segment bends. Included will be ongoing design specifications, simulation results, and discussion of measurement techniques for acquiring signal from the device.
