Bunch-by-bunch beam position measurements at PETRA III
The PETRA IV project is set to enhance the current PETRA III synchrotron into an ultra-low-emittance source. The reduced emittance will impose stringent requirements on machine stability and operation. In order to cope with these requirements, bunch-by-bunch information is required from most of the monitor systems. For precise monitoring of beam position and charge, the Libera Digit 500 instrument was tested as a readout electronics for BPMs at the existing machine PETRA III. This system features four channels with a 500 MHz sampling rate, synchronized with the accelerator's RF, enabling observation of beam properties with a bunch-by-bunch resolution, thus facilitating a more comprehensive understanding of beam behavior. This contribution provides an overview of the latest beam measurements at the single bunch level, allowing observation of beam oscillations and injection dynamics.
