Abstract
Accurate monitoring of the position of particle beams and synchrotron light beams is becoming more important for the types of experiments that are currently being performed and for those experiments being planned for the future. This paper reviews the present state of beam position monitors for synchrotron light sources and storage rings. It includes descriptions of position monitors for both the stored particle beam and the synchrotron light beam. Typical interfaces for these monitors and their system characteristics (resolution, stability, bandwidth and problems or limitations) are discussed. General considerations for the design of beam position monitoring systems and results from operational position monitoring systems are presented. The paper also reviews several types of diagnostic measurements using beam position monitors which are useful in improving accelerator operations.
