  The vertical beam size measurement at the Swiss Light Source (SLS) is based on vertically polarized visual light and allows to verify a vertical emittance of a few pm rad, resp. an emittance ratio in the 10-4 range obtained in 400 mA top-up user operation mode by tuning the lattice by means of 24 skew quadrupoles. Suppression of betatron coupling by local and global coupling correction prevents losses of Touschek scattered particles at the narrow vertical gaps of the in-vacuum undulators and thus protects these devices and increases beam lifetime, resp. the top-up interval. We will report on our experience with the beam size monitor, on the method of coupling control and on the achievements in vertical emittance and beam lifetime.  
THPC142 The Operation Event Logging System of the SLS 3318

  Modern 3rd generation synchrotron light sources aim for 100% availability. No single beam interruption is acceptable and every distortion of operation should be investigated: What caused the interruption? Can it be avoided in the future? If it can't be avoided, how can the recovery be accelerated? An automated event recording system has been implemented at the Swiss Light Source (SLS) in order to simplify this investigations. The system identifies distortions of the user operation and records automatically type and duration of the event. All relevant information connected to the event, from control system archive data to shift protocols, is linked to the event and presented in web pages. Additional information can be added manually. Each event will be assigned to a failure cause and area. Means to filter the events are provided. The paper will describe the concept and implementation of the even logging system at the SLS and the experiences with the system.
