  For the PEP-II Operation Staff: PEP-II is an asymmetric e+e- collider operating at the Upsilon 4S and has recently set several performance records. The luminosity has exceeded 1x1034/cm2/s and has delivered an integrated luminosity of 728/pb in one day. PEP-II operates in continuous injection mode for both beams, boosting the integrated luminosity. The peak positron current has reached 2.94 A and 1.74 A of electrons in 1732 bunches. The total integrated luminosity since turn on in 1999 has reached over 333/fb. This paper reviews the present performance issues of PEP-II and also the planned increase of luminosity in the near future to over 2 x 1034/cm2/s. Upgrade details and plans are discussed.

  A diagnostics system centered around commercial fast 8-bit digitizer boards has been implemented for the transverse feedback systems at PEP-II. The boards can accumulate bunch-by-bunch position data for 4800 turns (35 ms) in the x plane and the y plane. A dedicated trigger chassis allows to trigger the data acquisition on demand, or on an injection shot to diagnose injection problems, and provides gating signals for grow-damp measurements. Usually, the boards constantly acquire data and a beam abort stops data acquitision, thus preserving the last 4800 turns of position information before a beam abort. Software in a local PC reads out the boards and transfers data to a fileserver. Matlab-based data analysis software allows to present the raw data but also higher-level functions like spectra, modal analysis, spectrograms and other functions. The system has been instrumental in diagnosing beam instabilities in PEP. This paper will describe the architecture of the system and its applications.
