	In the framework of the High Intensity and Energy (HIE)-ISOLDE project at CERN, a beam instrumentation R&D program is on-going for the superconducting upgrade of the REX-ISOLDE heavy-ion post-accelerator. An overview of the foreseen beam diagnostics system is presented, focusing on the challenging specifications required by the HIE-ISOLDE linac. Due to the low beam intensities, the diagnostic instrumentation will be based on high-sensitivity intercepting devices. The project includes intensity and transverse profile monitors to be implemented in the very narrow longitudinal space that is available for beam diagnostics in the regions between the superconducting cryomodules. A longitudinal profile monitor is foreseen downstream of the linac to measure the beam energy and arrival time distributions and to allow for a fast phase-tuning of the superconducting cavities. A custom-made emittance meter will provide transverse emittance measurements based on a phase space sampling technique. The design status of the different instruments will be presented as well as the results of some experimental tests.

In the framework of the High Intensity and Energy (HIE)-ISOLDE project at CERN, a beam instrumentation R&D program is on-going for the superconducting upgrade of the REX-ISOLDE heavy-ion post-accelerator. An overview of the foreseen beam diagnostics system is presented, focusing on the challenging specifications required by the HIE-ISOLDE linac. Due to the low beam intensities, the diagnostic instrumentation will be based on high-sensitivity intercepting devices. The project includes intensity and transverse profile monitors to be implemented in the very narrow longitudinal space that is available for beam diagnostics in the regions between the superconducting cryomodules. A longitudinal profile monitor is foreseen downstream of the linac to measure the beam energy and arrival time distributions and to allow for a fast phase-tuning of the superconducting cavities.
