Description

The development of Beam Position Monitors (BPMs), and particularly the design of the button pickup, is critically important with the new generation of Synchrotron Light Sources. Specifically, the miniaturization of the vacuum pipe and the broadening of the beam spectrum present special challenges for the button's design to meet the superior stability requirements demanded by new feedback systems. This paper will address trends and challenges in BPM design for new light sources, covering material compatibility, precision manufacturing challenges, and the importance of prototyping and testing.
