In September 2016, we installed a detector in a quadrupole magnet that measures the electron cloud density using two independent techniques. Stripline electrodes collect cloud electrons which pass through holes in the beam-pipe wall. The array of small holes shields the striplines from the beam-induced electromagnetic pulse. The beam-pipe chamber has also been designed so that microwave measurements of the electron cloud density can be performed. The resonant microwaves are confined to be within the 56 cm length of the quadrupole. The detector is placed in a newly installed quadrupole that is adjacent to an existing lattice quadrupole of the same polarity. Since they are powered independently, their relative strengths can be varied with stored beam – allowing electron cloud measurements to be made as a function of gradient. This paper presents the first data obtained with this detector with trains of positron bunches at 5.3 GeV. The detector is installed in the Cornell Electron Storage Ring and is part of the test accelerator program for the study of electron cloud build-up using electron and positron beams from 2 to 5 GeV.
