  We present the first results from the commissioning of the upgraded laser-wire experiment at the Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) at KEK. A new laser transport line and beam diagnostics were used to collide 150 mJ, 167 ps long laser pulses with 1.28 GeV, 30 ps long electron bunches to measure the vertical transverse size. Additionally, a new detector was installed with a reduced area for lower background. Initial scans showing a convoluted beam size of 19.2 ± 0.2 microns were used to tune the electron beam optics and reduce this down to 8.1 ± 0.1 microns. Laser pulse energy and charge dependency were investigated showing a linear relationship in both with a minimum laser energy of 20 mJ required for observable signal with this laser and setup.

  The Accelerator Test Facility 2 (ATF2) in KEK, Japan, is a prototype scaled demonstrator system for the final focus required for a future high energy lepton linear collider. The ATF2 beam-line is instrumented with a total of 41 high resolution C and S band resonant cavity beam position monitors (BPM) with associated mixer electronics and digitizers. In addition 4 high resolution BPMs have been recently installed at the interaction point, we briefly describe the first operational experience of these cavities in the ATF2 beam-line. The current status of the overall BPM system is also described, with a focus on operational techniques and performance.

  Optical Transition Radiation (OTR) appears when a charged particle crosses a boundary between two media with different dielectric properties has widely been used as a tool for transverse profile measurements of charged particle beams in numerous facilities worldwide. The resolution of the conventional monitors is defined by the Point Spread Function (PSF) dimension - the source distribution generated by a single electron and projected by an optical system onto a screen. For small electron beam dimensions, the PSF form significantly depends on various parameters of the optical system like diffraction of the OTR tails, spherical and chromatic aberrations, etc. In our experiment we managed to create a system which can practically measure the PSF distribution and using a new self-calibration method we are able to calculate transverse electron beam size. Here we represent the development, data analysis and novel calibration technique of a sub-micrometer electron beam profile monitor based on the measurements of the PSF shape, which OTR visibility is sensitive to micrometer electron beam dimensions.

  High-brightness and reliable sources in the VUV and the soft X-ray region may be used for numerous applications in such areas as medicine, biology, biochemistry, material science, etc. We have proposed a new approach to produce the intense beams of X-rays in the range of eV based on Thomson scattering of Coherent Diffraction Radiation (CDR) on a 43 MeV electron beam. CDR is generated when a charged particle moves in the vicinity of an obstacle. The radiation is coherent when its wavelength is comparable to or longer than the bunch length. The CDR waves are generated in an opened resonator formed by two mirrors. In this report the status of the experiment, the first CDR measurements at the multibunch beam of the LUCX facility and general hardware design will be reported.
