  Single bunch instabilities have been observed since the early stage of NSLS-II storage ring commissioning. After installing the super-conducting cavity, the single bunch instability threshold current was similar at 0.7mA. The instability was eventually determined to be due to transverse mode coupling. Microwave instability has been characterized using streak camera bunch profile, horizontal beam sizes at dispersion location and beam spectrums. Microwave instability threshold current dependency on bunch lengths and IUV gaps has been studied. Most recent experimental results will be presented in this paper.

  NSLS-II state-of-the-art BPMs provide a single micron turn-by-turn BPM resolution for any bunch train of reasonable intensity. For certain beam dynamics studies a similar, or even better, resolution is desired for a single-, or a few-bunch fill, which is not yet available with our standard BPM signal processing. This paper describes our experience with more advanced BPM ADC signal processing which allowed us to significantly improve turn-by-turn BPM resolution in single bunch mode down to the level of about one micron at ~1 nC/bunch. We also present the examples of machine studies that benefit from this BPM performance enhancement.
