    Presentation

    We present signal and thermal measurements from the first prototype of a stripline Beam Position Monitor (BPM) intended for the PETRA IV synchrotron ring. The monitor was installed at the PETRA III testbed for evaluation and compared against CST Studio Suite simulation results. Initial measurements revealed unexpected signal oscillations and significant heating (up to 135 °C), which were not...

    Presentation

    A total of 916 button type beam position monitor (BPM) pickups have been foreseen to meet the requirements of the Elettra 2.0 light source.
    The first 16 prototype units, intended to validate the complete set of mechanical, vacuum, and electromagnetic characteristics, have been fully evaluated and successfully
    qualified through Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT) and Site Acceptance Tests...

    Discussion Trigger

    As part of our current facility upgrade, we are developing Beam Position Monitors (BPMs) designed for integration into a copper vacuum chamber. Following the preliminary design phase, the manufacturer suggested utilizing Kovar as an alternative to stainless steel for the housing. This presentation aims to discuss the implications of this material shift with the community, supported by Opera...

    Discussion Trigger

    Electromagnetic resonances localized near Beam Position Monitors (BPMs) can significantly distort the beam induced signal on the electrodes and compromise BPM readings. At the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), a detrimental resonance was identified in the vicinity of a BPM. It originates from a small break in the electrical continuity (~2-3µm) due to the nearby RF gasket that...
