Description

Recent and upcoming particle accelerators for HEP, as well as for applied science demand a very high beam quality, e.g. high beam power in the multi MW range, focused beams at the IP to a size of a few nm, fsec range bunch length, low beam halo and tails, high beam stability, etc. To characterize, verify and improve these beam parameters, advances in beam instrumentation and diagnostics are mandatory. The challenges for state-of-the-art beam instruments are presented by various R&D examples with respect to hadron and lepton accelerator projects.
