As part of the Advanced Photon Source (APS) Upgrade, new x-ray beamline front ends are planned that include extensive integrated x-ray diagnostic capability. The design includes a grazing-incidence insertion device x-ray beam position monitor (GRID-XBPM) based on Cu K-edge x-ray fluorescence from x-rays striking a pair of copper absorbers. At a 1.0-degree grazing incidence angle, the XBPM assembly was designed to withstand two inline Undulator A devices operating at 150-mA beam current, a total power of 16 kW. A second x-ray BPM located outside of the accelerator enclosure monitors back fluorescence from the beamline exit mask, which is a critical beamline-defining aperture. In addition, an intensity monitor is used to detect x-ray flux passing through a front-end mask inside the enclosure, while a second intensity monitor is located immediately downstream of the exit mask. Details of these designs and expected performance will be presented.
