  This presentation will describe developments in the beam diagnostics which support the understanding and operation of high power hadron accelerators. These include the measurement of large dynamic range transverse and longitudinal beam profiles, beam loss detection, and non-interceptive diagnostics.

  Ribbon electron beam source with a strip cathode has been designed, fabricated and tested. Image of the ribbon electron beam with width up to 15 cm has been registered on the luminescent screen. This ribbon beam can be used for the large proton bunch profile monitoring in the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) proton storage ring (PSR). Advanced beam diagnostics are essential for high performance accelerator beam production and for reliable accelerator operation. It is important to have noninvasive diagnostics which can be used continuously with intense beams of accelerated particles. In a novel proposed device for realization of electron probe tomography a strip cathode is used for ribbon electron beam formation instead of a scanning of pencil beam used in the previous electron probe bunch profile monitors. With this device it is possible to develop almost ideal tomography diagnostics of bunches in linear accelerators and in circular accelerators and storage rings.

The reduction of a particle’s wave function in the process of radiation or light scattering is a longstanding problem. Its solution will give a clue on processes that form, for example, wave functions of electrons constantly emitting synchrotron radiation quanta in storage rings. On a more global scale, it may shed light on wave function collapse due to the process of measurement. In this paper we consider various experimental options using Fermilab electron beams and a possible electron beam from the SNS linac and lasers to detect electron wave function change due to Compton scattering.
