In this report we present advances in beam instrumentation required for feedback-based beam control at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). Improved resolution has contributed to enabling now routine acceleration with multiple feedback loops. Better measurement and control of the beam’s properties have allowed acceleration at a new working point and have facilitated challenging experimental studies. |
