  This paper presents the design on the Cornell Electron Storage Ring (CESR) of an experimental set-up to meas-ure incoherent Diffraction Cherenkov Radiation (DChR) produced in a 2 cm long SiO2 radiator by a 2.1 GeV elec-tron beam. The electron beam is circulating at a distance of few mm from the edge of the radiator and the DChR photon output power is expected to be significantly higher than the diffraction radiation power emitted from a metal-lic slit of similar aperture. The radiator design and the detection set-up are presented in detail together with sim-ulations describing the expected properties of the emitted DChR in terms of light intensity and spectral bandwidth. Finally, potential applications of DChR are discussed.

  For optimal brilliance third generation light sources operate at a low emittance and low coupling. Commonly, transverse beam profile measurements are provided by direct imaging of the electron beam using X-ray pinhole cameras. From these beam size measurements and given knowledge of the lattice parameters the emittance, coupling and energy spread are calculated. Ideally, the pinhole aperture should be formed in an infinitely thin screen. However, due to the penetration of X-rays in the keV spectral range, stacked tungsten blades are often used to form the pinhole aperture. In this arrangement the absolute size of the pinhole aperture is unknown and cannot be directly measured, which affects the spatial resolution of the imaging system. Here we investigate the use of X-ray Lithography, Electroplating and Moulding (commonly known as LIGA) to fabricate high aspect ratio pinhole apertures in a gold screen of approximately 1 mm thickness.

  One cell of the Diamond storage ring has been converted from a double bend achromat to a double-double bend achromat (DDBA). After the successful installation and beam commissioning in November 2016, beam-based studies were done to assess the effect of the new cell on the single bunch and multi-bunch instabilities both in transverse and longitudinal planes. These are compared with the impedance estimate carried out both numerically and analytically.
