  For the high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider, active control of proton/ion beam halo will be essential for safe and reliable operation. Hollow Electron Lenses can provide such active control by enhancing the depletion of halo particles, and are now an integral part of the high luminosity LHC collimation system. The centring of the proton beam within the hollow electron beam will be monitored through imaging the fluorescence from a curtain of supersonic gas. In this contribution we report on the recent progress with this monitor and its subsystems, including the development of an LHC compatible gas-jet injection system, the fluorescence imaging setup and preliminary test measurement in the LHC

  Cherenkov-Diffraction Radiation (ChDR) appears when a charged particle moves in the vicinity of a dielectric medium with velocity higher than the phase velocity of light inside the medium. As the charged particle does not contact the medium, the emission of ChDR is a phenomenon that can be exploited for a range of non-invasive beam diagnostics. Experimental tests are underway on the Booster To Storage-ring (BTS) test stand at Diamond Light Source to explore the use of dielectric radiators as Beam Position Monitor (BPM) pickups by measuring the incoherent ChDR emission. In order to compliment the experiments on the BTS test stand, ChDR simulations have been performed using the Polarisation Currents Approach (PCA) model. This paper explores the PCA simulations for the BTS test stand, and the application for future diagnostics.

  The Heterodyne Near Field Speckles (HNFS) is a special type of interferometry technique where radiation is scattered by nanoparticles suspended in a medium. The scattered waves and the transmitted radiation form an interference pattern, which is modulated by the spatial coherence of the radiation and by the scattering properties of the nanoparticles. The superposition of many such interference patterns results in a speckle pattern, from which the spatial coherence of the radiation and thus the transverse beam profile can be determined. In this contribution we present approaches for simulating the HNFS patterns from hard X-ray radiation and compare then with data from experiments at the ALBA synchrotron.
