DELTA is a 1.5-GeV electron storage ring operated by the Center for Synchrotron Radiation at the TU Dortmund University. An interaction between electron bunches and femtosecond laser pulses is routinely used to generate ultrashort pulses of coherent synchrotron radiation at harmonics of the laser wavelength (coherent harmonic generation, CHG) as well as short and coherent pulses in the THz regime. The paper describes diagnostics methods to optimize the laser-electron overlap and to characterize the generated VUV and THz pulses. Furthermore, the laser-electron interaction can be employed as a beam diagnostics tool, e.g. to study the longitudinal steady-state bunch profile as well as dynamic properties during RF-phase modulation, which is applied to improve the beam lifetime.

At the 1.5-GeV electron storage ring DELTA operated by the TU Dortmund University, a bunch-by-bunch feedback system was installed in 2011. Since then, it is in operation for different beam diagnostic purposes. A fast analysis of bunch-position data allows a real-time multibunch mode analysis during machine operation. In addition, the data analysis can be triggered by external events, e.g. beam losses or the injection process. In this paper, a feedback-based method to measure the damping times of multi-bunch modes is presented. Furthermore, a chromaticity-dependent single-bunch instability is analyzed. Finally, the use of the feedback system in the presence of an RF-phase modulation is presented.
