	The LHC injection kicker magnets (MKIs) have experienced a significant degree of beam induced heating since the beginning of the 2011 due to the increasing intensity stored in the LHC, for long periods of time, and the relatively large broadband impedance of the installed kicker magnets. In this paper we show the sources of impedance in the MKIs, especially the effect that the beam screen dimensions have on the impedance. We show how these alter the power loss, and present an improved beam screen design that improves shielding on the magnet, whilst further improving electrical breakdown.

Higher order mode (HOM) beam position monitors (BPM) are being developed for the 3.9GHz third harmonic superconducting accelerating cavities at FLASH. The transverse beam position in a cavity can be determined utilizing beam-excited HOMs based on dipole components. The existing couplers used for HOM suppression provide the necessary signals. The diagnostics principle is similar to a cavity BPM, but requires no additional vacuum instruments on the linac. The challenges lie in the dense HOM spectrum arising from couplings of the majority HOMs amongst the four cavities in the cryo-module. HOMs with particularly promising diagnostics features were evaluated using various devices with various analysis methods. After careful theoretical and experimental assessment of HOMs, multi-cavity modes at ~5GHz were chosen to provide a global position over the complete module with superior resolution (~20μm) while trapped modes at ~9GHz provide local position in each cavity with comparable resolution (~50μm). A similar HOM-BPM system is planned for the European XFEL 3.9GHz module with 8 cavities. This paper reviews both the current status and the future prospects of HOM-BPMs in 3.9GHz cavities.
