MC02: Beam Loss Monitors and Machine Protection

Invited Oral Presentation

Three types of Beam Loss Monitors (BLMs) have been installed at the Swiss Light Source (SLS 2.0) for both commissioning and routine user operations: Libera BLMs for fast loss detection, RadFETs for dose distribution, and the novel CMOS-based BLM system that has been developed and integrated into the facility's operations. This presentation details the applications of these monitors (eg,...

MC02: Beam Loss Monitors and Machine Protection

Contributed Oral Presentation

The Linac Coherent Light Source II (LCLS-II) is currently undergoing a High Energy (HE) upgrade. This upgrade adds 23 additional cryomodules to the LCLS-II Linac, increasing its energy from 4GeV to 8GeV; which subsequently increases the hard X-ray source photon energy from 5keV up to 12keV. In the photon experimental beamlines, X-ray beam stoppers, located at the entrance to the experimental...
