  Experimental observation of longitudinal dynamics of injected beam in a storage ring has been demonstrated. Since the injected beam undergoes synchrotron oscillation in a longitudinal phase space, two projected values, i.e., a bunch duration and an energy spread, oscillate at twice the synchrotron frequency. At SPring-8, the initial energy spread (~0.126%) at the injection goes up and down until it reaches the equilibrium energy spread (~0.11%). If the injection timing should not be optimized, an asymmetrically enhanced oscillation could distort the injection efficiency. The observation of such an oscillation helps make sure that no significant injection loss occurs. More importantly, the scheme is expected to enable us to observe non-linear longitudinal dynamics of ultra-short bunches injected from the XFEL linac; the bunches are in near future going to be transferred from the linac to the storage ring via 600-meter long transports, in which strong coherent synchrotron radiation and other high peak-current effects will not be ignorable. Experimental results obtained by a dual-scan streak camera and other devices as well as numerical simulations will be presented.
