Over the course of the past three years, the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) has been reconfigured to serve as a test facility for next generation particle accelerators. A significant part of this program has been the installation of several diagnostic devices to measure and quantify the electron cloud effect, a potential limiting factor in these machines. In particular, more than 30 Retarding Field Analyzers (RFAs) have been installed in CESR. These devices measure the local electron cloud density and energy distribution, and can be used to evaluate the efficacy of different cloud mitigation techniques. This paper will provide an overview of RFA results obtained at CesrTA over the past year, including measurements taken as function of bunch spacing and wiggler magnetic field. Understanding these results provides a great deal of insight into the behavior of the electron cloud.

  The Belle experiment is now being upgraded to the Belle II experiment designed for a 40 times higher luminosity. Such a high luminosity is realized by the SuperKEKB collider where beam-induced background rates are expected to be much higher than those of KEKB. This poses a serious challenge for the design of the machine-detector interface. We have thus carried out a GEANT4-based beam background simulation for Touschek effect. We describe the method of generating background particles and present the result of simulation.

  The Belle experiment, operated at the asymmetric electron-positron collider KEKB, had accumulated a data sample with an integrated luminosity of more than 1 at-1before the shutdown in June 2010. We have started upgrading both the accelerator and detector, SuperKEKB and Belle-II, to achieve the target luminosity of 8x1035 cm-2s-1. With the increased luminosity, the beam background will also increase. The development of Machine-Detector Interface (MDI) design is very important to cope with the increased background and protect Belle-II detector. We will present the estimation of impact from each beam background sources at SuperKEKB and our countermeasures for them, such as collimators to stop Touschek-scattered beam particles, Tungsten shield to protect inner detectors from shower particles, dedicated beam pipe design around interaction point to stop synchrotron radiation, etc.
