  For the operation of the Metrology Light Source (MLS)*, the dedicated electron storage ring of the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), as the national primary radiation source standard from the near infrared to the vacuum ultraviolet spectral region, all storage ring parameters which are relevant for the calculation of the radiant intensity by the Schwinger equation have to be known absolutely with small uncertainties. For the measurement of the effective vertical electron beam size a Bragg polarimeter, operating at a photon energy of 1103 eV, has been designed and put into operation. This system also serves as a detection system for the image of the electron beam through a set of narrow slits. The results obtained with the new device are compared to those measured by an optical beam imaging system**.

  The Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), the German national metrology institute, owns the electron storage ring Metrology Light Source (MLS) which was built and is operated by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin [1, 2]. The MLS has been in regular user operation since April 2008 and supports synchrotron-radiation-based metrology and technological developments in the IR, UV, VUV and EUV spectral range. Here we report on recent progress to develop the MLS into a reliable, flexible and stable user facility.
