The study of electron cloud-related instabilities for the CESR-TA project permits the observation of the interaction of the electron cloud with the stored beam under a variety of accelerator conditions. These measurements are undertaken utilizing automatic and semi-automatic techniques for three basic observations: the measurement of tune shifts of individual bunches along a train, the detection of the coherent self-excited spectrum for each bunch within a train and the pulsed excitation of either the betatron dipole or head-tail mode for each individual bunch within the train, followed by the observation of the damping of its coherent motion. These techniques are employed to study the electron cloud-related interactions in a number of conditions, such as trains of bunches with low emittance and spaced by as little as 4 nsec between bunches. We report on the most recent observations and results.

  The achievement in recent years of beams with vertical emittance of a few pico-meters in a number of electron storage rings has presented challenges for diagnostics capable of beam size measurements in this regime. A number of different approaches have been developed for various machines (e.g. laser wire; interferometer; Shintake monitor; coded aperture; compound refractive lens). This presentation will review and compare the different methods, and discuss their strengths, weaknesses, ultimate limitations, and the situations where they might be appropriate; and consider possible future directions.
